ab to nahin aasra kisi ka
allah hai apni bekasi ka

o aankh badal ke jaane wale
kuchh dhyan kisi ki aajizi ka

bimar ko dijiye tasalli
ye waqt nahin jali-kati ka

aapas mein hui jo bad-gumani
mushkil hai nibah dosti ka

baalin se koi utha ye kah kar
anjam ba-khair ho kisi ka

gham ka bhi qayam kuchh na thahra
rona kya roiye khushi ka

pahuncha hi diya kisi gali tak
allah-re zor be-khudi ka

aakhir ko sharab rang lai
chhupta nahin raaz mai-kashi ka

andhera 'hafiz' ho raha hai
bujhta hai charagh zindagi ka
