dil hai na nishan be-dili ka
kya waqt pada hai be-kasi ka

dekha kiye rasta kisi ka
tha shaghl ye apni zindagi ka

parwa-e-karam na shikwa-e-gham
allah re dimagh be-dili ka

main aur ye be-niyazi-e-shauq
ehsan hai josh-e-be-khudi ka

marna marne ki aarzu mein
hasil hai ye apni zindagi ka

aansu bhar aae dil bhar aaya
gar nam bhi sun liya khushi ka

aakhir 'ibrat' ne jaan de di
kuchh pas kiya na be-kasi ka
