chalti to hai par shokhi-e-raftar kahan hai — Kalb

"puura karenge holi men kya vada-e-visal jin ko abhi basant ki ai dil khabar nahin"

"tiri tarif ho ai sahib-e-ausaf kya mumkin zabanon se dahanon se takallum se bayanon se"

"ho ga.e raam jo tum ghair se a jan-e-jahan jal rahi hai dil-e-pur-nur ki lanka dekho"

"sabz kapDon men siyah-zulf ki zeba.i hai dhaan ke khet men kya kaali ghaTa chha.i hai"

"hain diin ke paband na duniya ke muqayyad kya ishq ne is bhul-bhulayyan se nikala"

"log kahte hain ki fann-e-sha.iri manhus hai sher kahte kahte main deputy collector ho gaya"
