dil sakht nidhaal ho gaya hai
sans aana muhaal ho gaya hai

tu tera visal teri furqat
sab khwab-o-khayal ho gaya hai

wo shauq ki tha mata-e-hasti
ab ji ka wabaal ho gaya hai

kya rabt hai mera roz o shab se
har lamha sawal ho gaya hai

jo dard bhula diya tha tu ne
wo dard bahaal ho gaya hai

ab chaaragari se faeda kya
aaghaz-e-maal ho gaya hai

tayyar rakho charag apne
suraj ko zawal ho gaya hai

ai dil meri jaan kuchh to batla
ye kya tera haal ho gaya hai

lahore ki ahl-e-dil ki jaan tha
kufe ki misal ho gaya hai

is aalam-e-be-kasi mein 'shohrat'
jita hun kamal ho gaya hai
