ye mana nit-nae fitne ajab ranjan-o-mehan jage

wo aur bazm hai jis mein charagh jalte hain

is se pahle ki gham-e-kaun-o-makan ko samjho

ye gham nahin ki KHushi mein bhi kuchh maza na raha

dagh dhul gae ab to dard mein kami si hai

ruThe huon ko apne manane chale the hum

bas ho bhi chukin hasrat-e-parwaz ki baaten

zamin pe khulti rahi hain kaliyan falak pe tare uga kiye hain

har gham gham-e-taza hai ye shadab hai sina

hona hai gham ko KHak-basar jagte raho

zamin se shukr o shikayat hai aasman se nahin

meri nazar mein dosto jis shahr ke gulzar hain

dabe jo aag to dil se dhuan sa uThta hai
