suna bhi kabhi majra dard-o-gham ka kisi dil-jale ki zabani kaho to

wafa ka banda hun ulfat ka pasdar hun main

jatate rahte hain ye hadse zamane ke

mile ghairon se mujhko ranj o gham yun bhi hai aur yun bhi

KHizan ka jo gulshan se paD jae pala

haq-o-nahaq jalana ho kisi ko to jala dena

hote hi jawan ho gae paband-e-hijab aur

zom na kijo shama-ru bazm ke soz o saz par

basa-auqat aa jate hain daman se gareban mein

amanat mohtasib ke ghar sharab-e-arghawan rakh di

uDa sakta nahin koi mere andaz-e-shewan ko

mohabbat mein jina nai baat hai

hamein kahti hai duniya zaKHm-e-dil zaKHm-e-jigar wale
