hum quwwat-e-jazb-e-dil dikhaen
aur phir wo hamare ghar na aaen

kya chir ke sina-e-dil dikhaen
kuchh haal suno to hum sunaen

ai bakht kahan talak burai
ai charkh kahan talak jafaen

hum sina-sipar kiye khade hain
wo shauq se khanjar aazmaen

jo kaam mein ghair ke huin sarf
afsos wo dil-ruba adaen

shayad ki hai garm-e-nala 'saqib'
chalti hain sharar-fishan hawaen
