vo nahin bhultaa jahaan jaaun — Imam Bakhsh Nasikh

ham zaifon ko kahaan aamad o shud ki taaqat
aankh ki band huaa kucha-e-jaanaan paidaa

ham mai-kashon ko Dar nahin marne kaa mohtasib
firdaus mein bhi sunte hain nahr-e-sharaab hai

taazgi hai sukhan-e-kuhna mein ye baad-e-vafaat
log aksar mire jiine kaa gumaan rakhte hain

shubh 'naasikh' nahin kuchh 'mir' ki ustaadi mein
aap be-bahra hai jo mo'taqid-e-'mir' nahin

kaam kyaa nikle kisi tadbir se
aadmi majbur hai taqdir se

takallum hi faqat hai us sanam kaa
khudaa ki tarah goyaa be-dahaan hai
