shikwa sun kar jo mizaj-e-but-e-bad-khu badla
hum ne bhi sath hi taqrir ka pahlu badla

kahiye to kis ke phansane ki ye tadbiren hain
aaj kyun chin-ba-jabin se kham-e-gesu badla

ek tera rabt ki do din kabhi yaksan na raha
ek mera haal ki hargiz na sar-e-mu badla

un hasinon hi ko zeba hai talawwun ai dil
han khabar-dar jo bhule se kabhi tu badla

dil-e-muztar ki tadap se jo main tadpa 'bekhud'
chaara-gar khush hain ki bimar ne pahlu badla
