sabhi zindagi pe farefta koi maut par nahin shefta

qalam mein zor jitna hai judai ki badaulat hai

isi par KHush hain ki ek dusre ke sath rahte hain

auron se puchhiye to haqiqat pata chale

jinko qudarat hai taKHayyul par unhen dikhta nahin

hazar rang mein mumkin hai dard ka izhaar

ghar mein bechaini ho to agle safar ki sochna

saton aalam sar karne ke baad ek din ki chhuTTi le kar

ye duniya-dari aur irfan ka dawa shuja-KHawar

mere haalat ko bas yun samajh lo

do chaar nahin sainkaDon sher us pe kahe hain

us bewafa ka shahr hai aur waqt-e-sham hai

dil mein nafrat ho to chehre pe bhi le aata hun

sardi bhi KHatm ho gai barsat bhi gai

rind khaDe hain mimbar mimbar
