dil se shauq-e-ruKh-e-niko na gayaa
jha.Nkanaa taakanaa kabhu na gayaa

har qadam par thii us kii ma.nzil lek
sar se saudaa-e-justajuu na gayaa

sab gaye hosh-o-sabr-o-taab-o-tavaa.N
lekin ai daaG dil se tu na gayaa

ham Khudaa ke kabhii qaayal to na the
un ko dekhaa to Khudaa yaad aa gayaa

dil me.n kitane masaude the vale
ek pesh us ke ruu-ba-ruu na gayaa

subaah gardaan hii 'Meer' ham to rahe
dast-e-kotaah taa sabuu na gayaa
