aah ai sauda-e-kham-e-arzu
ta-ba-kai aakhir nizam-e-arzu

zabt-e-ah-e-dil-shikan aur main hazin
kar raha hun ehtiram-e-arzu

hoshiyar ai infial-e-kaif-za
husn tak pahuncha payam-e-arzu

chashm-e-lutf-agin nae andaz se
le rahi hai intiqam-e-arzu

ahl-e-dil zinda hain kis ummid par
nazm-e-duniya hai nizam-e-arzu

yas ki gunjaishen kis dil mein hain
le raha hai kaun nam-e-arzu

bazm-e-anjum jab sarapa-gosh thi
kash tum sunte payam-e-arzu

aah ab khuddari-e-akbar kahan
ho gai wo bhi ghulam-e-arzu
