'rasa' ko dil mein rakhte hain 'rasa' ke jaanne wale
wafa ki qadar karte hain wafa ke jaanne wale

teri tegh-e-ada khinchte hi apni jaan jati hai
qaza se pahle marte hain qaza ke jaanne wale

bhari hain shokhiyan lakhon teri nichi nigahon mein
hamin hain kuchh teri sharm-o-haya ke jaanne wale

meri fariyaad sun kar kuchh unhen parwa nahin hoti
nidar baithe hain aah-e-na-rasa ke jaanne wale

'rasa' ko sab ne samjhaya magar samjha na kuchh zalim
hue majbur us mard-e-khuda ke jaanne wale
