sahar ke saath chale raushni ke saath chale — Khurshid Ahmad Jami

"tiri nigah mudava na ban saki jin ka tiri talash men aise bhi zakhm khaa.e hain"

"zindagani ke hasin shahr men aa kar 'jami' zindagani se kahin haath mila.e bhi nahin"

"koi halchal hai na aahaT na sada hai koi dil ki dahliz pe chup-chap khaDa hai koi"

"baDe dilchasp vaade the baDe rangin dhoke the gulon ki aarzu men zindagi shole uTha laa.i"

"yad-e-mazi ki pur-asrar hasin galiyon men mere hamrah abhi ghuum raha hai koi"

"pahchan bhi saki na miri zindagi mujhe itni rava-ravi men kahin samna hua"
