KHuda se waqt-e-dua hum sawal kar baiThe

hamare waste hai ek jina aur mar jaana

kisi ki yaad ko hum zist ka hasil samajhte hain

kam na thi sahra se kuchh bhi KHana-virani meri

dast-e-KHirad se parda-kushai na ho saki

is ka gila nahin ki dua be-asar gai

ghabraiye kyun zindagi be-kaif agar hai

wo aai sham-e-gham waqf-e-bala hone ka waqt aaya

bais-e-imbisat ho aamad-e-nau-bahaar kya

ye kis se aaj barham ho gai hai

nazar uTha dil-e-nadan ye justuju kya hai

kawishon se aman mile na mile

badnam hun par aashiq-e-badnam tumhaara

kya sunaen kisi ko haal apna

fitna-ara shorish-e-ummid hai mere liye
