saaf dil hai to aa kudurat chhoD — Shaikh Zahuruddin Hatim

"ab-e-hayat ja ke kisu ne piya to kya manind-e-khizr jag men akela jiya to kya"

"kabhu bimar sun kar vo ayadat ko to aata tha hamen apne bhale hone se vo azar behtar tha"

"gulshan-e-dahr men sau rang hain 'hatim' us ke vo kahin gul hai kahin bu hai kahin buuTa hai"

"ye masla shaikh se puchho ham is jhagDe se farigh hai ki DaDhi shahr men kis ki baDi aur kis ki chhoTi hai"

"ahl-e-ma.ani juz na bujhega koi is ramz ko ham ne paaya hai khuda ko surat-e-insan ke biich"

"tanha.i se aati nahin din raat mujhe niind ya-rab mira ham-khvab o ham-aghosh kahan hai"
