aakhir ashkon mein ek andaz-e-payam aa hi gaya
zabt-e-gham allah rakkhe ye bhi kaam aa hi gaya

le ke manzil par mujhe shauq-e-tamam aa hi gaya
aaj un se bhi bichhadne ka maqam aa hi gaya

gahe-gahe aah kar lena bhi kaam aa hi gaya
kam se kam tere hawa-khwahon mein nam aa hi gaya

jitni jo pita ho pi le daur-e-jam aa hi gaya
qadr-dan-e-har-tamam-o-na-tamam aa hi gaya

hae duzdida-nigahon mein wo rang-e-iltifat
us ne jo bheja na tha wo bhi payam aa hi gaya

go raha sharminda-e-ehsas ranj-e-tishnagi
phir bhi lutf-e-intizar-e-daur-e-jam aa hi gaya

himmat-e-parwaz ye bhi kaamyabi kam nahin
go chaman tak main na pahuncha zer-e-dam aa hi gaya
