ek sard jang hai ab mohabbaten kahan
tutte hue tilism phailta hua dhuan

wo bhi apne husn se be-khayal ho chala
aur khwab ban gain meri sar-giraniyan

qais ki mohabbaten kohkan ki chahatin
aur ye riwayaten bhulti kahaniyan

hum se pahle aur bhi kar gae wafa bahut
khak mein mila chale hum bhi zindaganiyan

apne silsile se bhi kya khayal aae hain
jaan ki qadr kuchh nahin dil-ba-dast dil-baran
