KHuda asar se bachae is aastane ko

bijliyan TuT paDin jab wo muqabil se uTha

shabab-e-hosh ki fil-jumla yaadgar hui

bedad ke KHugar the fariyaad to kya karte

mohtaj-e-ajal kyun hai KHud apni qaza ho ja

qissa-e-zist muKHtasar karte

ai maut tujh pe umr-e-abad ka madar hai

hasil-e-ilm-e-bashar jahl ka irfan hona

kya chhupate kisi se haal apna

dil aur dil mein yaad kisi KHush-KHiram ki

mar kar tere KHayal ko Tale hue to hain

qatra dariya-e-ashnai hai

ki wafa yar se ek ek jafa ke badle

mere lab par koi dua hi nahin

kucha-e-jaanan mein ja nikle jo ghilman bhul kar
