shab-e-visal lagaya jo un ko sine se
to hans ke bole alag baithiye qarine se

sawab ho ki na ho is se kya gharaz zahid
maza mila mujhe tujh ko pila ke pine se

shab-e-firaq ye ehsan hai tasawwur ka
ki so raha hun laga kar kisi ko sine se

falak mitaega mujh ko jo tum mukaddar ho
adawat us ki badhegi tumhaare kine se

gham-e-firaq mein kya lutf-e-zindagi hai 'hafiz'
hamein to maut hi behtar hai aise jine se
