dilbar-e-be-bak sun khub nahin bolna
shokh sitam-nak sun khub nahin bolna

dast mein khanjar pakad nikla hai wo ghussa-war
hath ke chaalak sun khub nahin bolna

abtar-e-khun-rez hai qatl upar tez hai
zalim-o-saffak sun khub nahin bolna

us ki jafa sin tamam jag mein padi dhum-dham
hum jam-o-zahhak sun khub nahin bolna

mujh se raqib-o-lain jiw mein rakhta hai kin
us sag-e-napak sun khub nahin bolna

bul-hawas-e-zisht-ru karta hai nit guftugu
mard be-idrak sun khub nahin bolna

misra-e-matla sada wird kare 'mubtala'
dilbar-e-be-bak sun khub nahin bolna
