gudaz-e-dil se mila sozish-e-jigar se mila
jo qahqahon mein ganwaya tha chashm-e-tar se mila

talluqat ke ai dil hazar pahlu hain
na jaane mujh se wo kis nuqta-e-nazar se mila

kabhi thakan ka kabhi faslon ka rona hai
safar ka hausla mujh ko na ham-safar se mila

main dusron ke liye be-qarar phirta hun
ajib dard mujhe mere chaara-gar se mila

har inqalab ki tarikh ye batati hai
wo manzilon pe na paya jo rahguzar se mila

na main ne soz hi paya na istaqamat hi
hajar hajar ko tatola shajar shajar se mila

'hafiz' ho gaya aakhir ajal se ham-aghosh
tamam shab ka sataya hua sahar se mila
