bahaar aai hai phir gul-posh hoga gulsitan apna
qafas mein yaad aata hai mujhe ab aashiyan apna

na ab apni zamin hai aur na hai ab aasman apna
bata phir teri duniya mein thikana hai kahan apna

chaman apna na gul apne na hai ab aashiyan apna
khuda ki shan dushman ho gaya sara jahan apna

yahan uthta nahin hai panw fart-e-na-tawani se
wahan chalne ko hai tayyar mir-e-karwan apna

isi ummid hi mein jaan di hai marne wale ne
ab aaega ab aaega masiha-e-zaman apna

qafas to kya hai jal jaega ye sara jahan sayyaad
qayamat hai qayamat nala-e-shoala-fishan apna

khuda rakkhe ajab shai hai ye yak-rangi mohabbat ki
samajhte hain bayan tera jo kahta hun bayan apna

bahut sunte rahe ho qais aur farhad ke qisse
suno to aaj 'fazil' bhi sunae kuchh bayan apna
