khade hain dil mein jo barg-o-samar lagae hue
tumhaare hath ke hain ye shajar lagae hue

bahut udas ho tum aur main bhi baitha hun
gae dinon ki kamar se kamar lagae hue

abhi sipah-e-sitam khema-zan hai chaar taraf
abhi pade raho zanjir-e-dar lagae hue

kahan kahan na gae aalam-e-khayal mein hum
nazar kisi ke dar-o-baam par lagae hue

wo shab ko chir ke suraj nikal bhi lae
hum aaj tak hain ummid-e-sahar lagae hue

dilon ki aag jalao ki ek umr hui
sada-e-nala-e-dud-o-sharar lagae hue
