diye ki lau se na jal jae tirgi shab ki
ki din ki qadr ka bais hai har ghadi shab ki

jo dil-kharash hain kuchh lamhe din ke lamhon mein
to dil-faroz bhi hain saaten kai shab ki

kahan ke khwab mere aur kahan ki tabiren
mujhe to sone na de ab sahar-gari shab ki

jo wo nahin hai to kuchh bhi nahin hai phir 'hamid'
abas hain chand ke bin raunaqen sabhi shab ki
