Baaten mat banao koi kaam ki baat sunao

Bujh jaayegi sham’a jaanaan, aaj ki raat sajao

Chaman se ja chuki hai na jaane kahan bahaar

Udaas hai har kali, bulbul, chund naghmaat hi sunao

Vaaiz, suna tha tera khutba aala tha woh bahot

Rah e khuda per chalta hun tum saughaat hi dilao

Samajhta hai kaun rang o bu tum se behtar, ai mussavir

Tasweer is jahan ki sabko, tum woh haalat hi dikhlao

Aasaan kya hai yaro, aasaan to nahin hai kuchh bhi

Jab marna bhi aasaan nahin hai to mushkilaat hi sunao

Tum to likhte hi raho ‘sahil’, shaair tum kya banogey

Aaye jo dil men tumhaarey, woh qalam dawaat hi chalao
