zulmaton mein raushni ki justuju karte raho
jafa o jaur-e-musalsal wafa o zabt-e-alam
ata-e-gham pe bhi KHush hun meri KHushi kya hai
aadmiyat ke siwa jis ka koi maqsad na ho
shamil ho gar na gham ki KHalish zindagi ke sath
mumkin hai mere baad bhula den mujhe lekin
ishq ki aag ai maaz-allah
lab pe kanTon ke hai fariyaad-o-buka mere baad
uf wo aankhen marte dam tak jo rahi hain ashk-bar
shab-e-firaq ki zulmat hai na-gawar mujhe
tasawwur ke sahaare yun shab-e-gham KHatm ki maine
mayus na ho be-ruKHi-e-chashm-e-jahan se
nigah-o-dil se guzri dastan tak baat ja pahunchi
mohabbat hai azal ke din se shamil meri fitrat mein
tamam umr qafas mein guzar di humne
