shab ke ḳhilāf barsar-e-paikār kab hue
ham log raushnī ke talabgār kab hue
ḳhushbū kī ghaat meñ haiñ shikārī havāoñ ke
jhoñke magar kisī se giraftār kab hue
ta.abīr kī rutoñ ne badan zard kar diye
phir bhī ye log ḳhvāb se bedār kab hue
taale lagā liye haiñ ḳhud apnī zabān par
kyā baat hai tum itne samajhdār kab hue
ye ahd apnī ruuh meñ ahd-e-firāq hai
ham matl.a-e-suḳhan pe numūdār kab hue
ḳhil.at vasūl karte hue sar uThā liyā
rusvā 'najīb' ham sar-e-darbār kab hue
