mar gae pyas ke mare to uTha abr-e-karam

kis ko bikna tha magar KHush hain ki is hile se

jo zahr pi chuka hun tumhin ne mujhe diya

jis samt bhi dekhun nazar aata hai ki tum ho

chale the yar baDe zoam mein hawa ki tarah

zindagi se yahi gila hai mujhe

tana-e-nashsha na do sab ko ki kuchh soKHta-jaan

na tera qurb na baada hai kya kiya jae

kya kahen kitne marasim the hamare us se

ab zamin par koi gautam na mohammad na masih

is se baDh kar koi inam-e-hunar kya hai faraaz

shahr-walon ki mohabbat ka main qael hun magar

silwaTen hain mere chehre pe to hairat kyun hai

do ghaDi us se raho dur to yun lagta hai

us ka kya hai tum na sahi to chahne wale aur bahut
