ai kahkashan guzar ke teri rahguzar se hum
aage badhenge aur maqam-e-qamar se hum

azm-e-buland hausla-e-mustaqil liye
guzre har ek marhala-e-sakht-tar se hum

dekha to hai zamin se tujhe gumbad-e-falak
dekhenge ab zamin ko tere baam-o-dar se hum

jab se hui hai aankh shab-e-gham se aashna
na-ashna hain lazzat-e-khwab-e-sahar se hum

dil iztirab-o-dard se mahrum ho gaya
baz aae tere lutf-o-karam ki nazar se hum

har taza gham ke waste ja-e-qayam hai
tang aa gae hain wusat-e-qalb-o-jigar se hum

targhib de na ai dil-e-furqat-nasib tu
waqif hain khub aah-o-fughan ke asar se hum

'fazil' hamara haal bhi hota teri misal
rahte na hoshiyar agar rahbar se hum
