wo sitam na Dhae to kya kare use kya KHabar ki wafa hai kya?

zindagi mail-e-fariyaad-o-fughan aaj bhi hai

kaun aajiz sila-e-tishna-e-dahani mange

gham-e-dil hi gham-e-dauran gham-e-jaanana banta hai

ye diwane kabhi pabandiyon ka gham nahin lenge

aashna gham se mila rahat se begana mila

ye sitam ki mahfil-e-naz hai kalim isko aur sajae ja

har-chand gham-o-dard ki qimat bhi bahut thi

baDi talab thi baDa intizar dekho to

talKHiyan isMein bahut kuchh hain maza kuchh bhi nahin

haqiqaton ka jalal denge sadaqaton ka jamal denge

jab saba aai idhar zikr-e-bahaar aa hi gaya

main roun hun rona mujhe bhae hai

ku-e-qatil hai magar jaane ko ji chahe hai

tujhe sang-dil ye pata hai kya ki dukhe dilon ki sada hai kya
