aaj phir sar-e-maqtal de ke KHud lahu humne

aah ye daur ki jis mein lab-o-ruKHsar bike

har-chand husn-saz hun paikar-tarash hun

ghair-mumkin hai ki miT jae sanam ki surat

shiddat-e-shauq asar-KHez hai jadu ki tarah

ek muddat se isi uljhan mein hun

hujum-e-gham se mili hai hayat-e-nau mujhko

haq baat sar-e-bazm bhi kahne mein tammul

is tarah husn-o-mohabbat ki karo tum tafsir

apna nafas nafas hai ki shoala kahen jise
