shikoh-e-ab mein gum the jihat-nishan mere
hawa ne rakh diye tah kar ke baadban mere
sahar ko sath uDa le gai saba jaise
ye kis ne kar diye raste dhuan dhuan mere
tere ishaara-e-abru pe rut badalti hai
bahaar hai na tasallut mein hai KHizan mere
utarne wale safinon mein chhed karte gae
Dubo gae mujhe sahil pe mehrban mere
khila shagufa-e-gham shaKH-e-umr par 'sayyad'
mahak rahe hain sar-e-harf jism-o-jaan mere
Ghazal
Shikoh-e-ab mein gum the jihat-nishan mere
