dil ke arman dil ko chhod gae
aah munh is jahan se mod gae

wo umangen nahin tabiat mein
kya kahen ji ko sadme tod gae

baada-e-bas ke musalsal daur
saghar-e-arzu ko phod gae

mit gae wo nazzara-ha-e-jamil
lekin aankhon mein aks chhod gae

hum the ishrat ki gahri ninden thin
aae aalam aur jhinjhod gae
