buri baat un ko hamari lage
dil jo murda ho to ye rashk-e-jinan kuchh bhi nahin
saz-e-hasti pe agar gao to kuchh baat bane
zat ke gard fasilen hain riyazat malum
jab hui KHak to iksir hui hai baba
har-samt tazgi si jharnon ki naghmagi se kitni
kabhi to dosto apne watan ki baat karen
kab hawa muTThi mein aati hai abas dauDa kiya
wada-e-ulfat-o-paiman-e-wafa se tauba
dekhe to tamaddun ka banna koi urdu mein
aatish-e-fikr badan ghulta ho paiham jaise
nashtar si dil mein chubhti hui baat le chalen
hum apne-ap se karte rahe bayan tanha
hadis-e-ishq ko unwan la-jawab mila
tha unki tarah main bhi aaghaz mein saudai
