ba-rang-e-sher gire aur bar bar gire
hamare zehn pe kirnon ke aabshaar gire

ghamon ki rah mein sabit-qadam hain diwane
bisat-e-aish pe kitne nashat-e-kar gire

chaman khula to nai nikhaton ke aanchal par
shaguft-e-gul se tere aks be-shumar gire

zamin chand ka tukda hai jis ki zulmat par
kai ujale har ek shab sitara-war gire

hamein bhi fursat-e-yak-khwab us faza mein jahan
kiran kiran lab-o-rukhsar ki phuwar gire

ubhar raha hai jo mashriq ke har kharabe se
kise khabar ki kahan ja ke ye ghubar gire
