apne marne ka agar ranj mujhe hai to ye hai

udas dekh ke mujhko chaman dikhata hai

chandni raaton mein chillata phira

did-e-laila ke liye dida-e-majnun hai zarur

pas-e-din kufr mein bhi tha malhuz

qais samjha meri laila ki sawari aai

KHak chhanwati hai diwanon se apne muddaton

panw ke hath se gardish hi rahi mujhko mudam

kya sun chuke hain aamad-e-fasl-e-bahaar hath

kabe ko jata kis liye hindostan se main

imsal fasl-e-gul mein wo phir chaak ho gae

tha muqaddam ishq-e-but islam par tifli mein bhi

hum jo kahte hain sarasar hai ghalat

kya mila arz-e-muddaa kar ke

khuli hai kunj-e-qafas mein meri zaban sayyaad
