aalam ke doston mein murawwat nahin rahi
sharm-o-haya-o-mehr wa shafqat nahin rahi

zahir mein kya rafiq kahate hain aap kun
lekin unon ke dil mein mohabbat nahin rahi

milte hain rasti sin jo koi kaj-nazar mile
khwabon mein pak-baz ki hurmat nahin rahi

har khar bul-hawas ke kiye sohbat ikhtiyar
to husn gul-rukhon mein latafat nahin rahi

na-layqon mein umr kun karnan abas talaf
ham-sohbati ki un mein liyaqat nahin rahi

bhule hain har sanam ke karishme pe hosh kun
in zahidon mein kashf-o-karamat nahin rahi

sifle hue aziz aziz ab hue kharab
be-jauharon mein qadr-e-sharafat nahin rahi

mat ho bahaar-e-gulshan-e-duniya ka andalib
is phulban mein bu-e-rifaqat nahin rahi

ab zat-e-haq baghair na rakh dosti 'siraj'
aalam mein aashnai-o-ulfat nahin rahi
