mujhko pamal kar gaya hai wahi

to mail-e-ushshaq-kushi hai to yahan bhi

KHuda hum to shab-e-firaq se majbur ho gae

fikr-e-suKHan talash-e-maash o KHayal-e-yar

hum bhi ai jaan-e-man itne to nahin nakara

mail-e-girya main yan tak hun ki aaza pe mere

ji mein aati hai karun un ko main ek din sidha

gali mein uski hui halq yan tak aasuda

ye zamana wo hai jis mein hain buzurg o KHurd jitne

dast-e-shikasta apna na pahuncha kabhi daregh

aaKHir to arsh par hain arwah-e-shairan bhi

main wo dozaKH hun ki aatish par meri

main kya jaanun qalaq kya chiz hai par itna jaanun hun

uske dar par main gaya sang banae to kaha

go main buton mein umr ko kaTa to kya hua
