numud o bud ko aaqil habab samjhe hain

wajd ho bulbul-e-taswir ko jis ki bu se

ishaare kya nigah-e-naz-e-dil-ruba ke chale

shahid-e-ishq hue qais namwar ki tarah

sada hai fikr-e-taraqqi buland-binon ko

koi anis koi aashna nahin rakhte

mera raaz-e-dil aashkara nahin

ibtida se hum zaif o na-tawan paida hue

KHud nawed-e-zindagi lai qaza mere liye
