jo ja ke na aae phir jawani hai ye shai

darwaze pe tere hi marunga ya-rab

kahta hun KHuda-lagti aqide ke KHilaf

ta-mah-e-siyam hue bab-e-ummid

jahil ki hai miras qalaq taKHt-o-taj

kis waste di thin hamein ya-rab aankhen

KHurshid pe jis waqt zawal aata hai

sad-haif ki mai-nosh hue hum kaise

afsos teri waza pe aata hai qalaq

kya zikr-e-wafa jafa kisi se na bani

dil josh-e-maasi se na kyun KHun ho jae

dil se mujhe aane ki hai aan ki aahaT

marmar ke pae ranj-o-bala jite hain

shah kahte the afsos na kahna mane

ya-rab tujhe fikr-e-pa-e-bandi kya hai
