is darja bad-guman hain khulus-e-bashar se hum
apnon ko dekhte hain parai nazar se hum

ghunchon se pyar kar ke ye izzat hamein mili
chume qadam bahaar ne guzre jidhar se hum

wallah tujh se tark-e-talluq ke baad bhi
aksar guzar gae hain teri rah-guzar se hum

sidq-o-safa-e-qalb se mahrum hai hayat
karte hain bandagi bhi jahannam ke dar se hum

uqba mein bhi milegi yahi zindagi 'shakil'
mar kar na chhut paenge is dard-e-sar se hum
