charagh jo bhi jala hai hawa ke sae mein
sada raha hai farozan dua ke sae mein

hamein mita na sakegi ye gardish-e-dauran
azal se hum hain ata-e-khuda ke sae mein

farogh-e-subh ka aalam hai wajh-e-mayusi
ujale sahme hain kis baddua ke sae mein

kabhi to hoga bahaaron ka is taraf ko nuzul
khizan-rasida chaman hai hawa ke sae mein

mili na tauba ki mohlat tamam umr kabhi
hamari zindagi guzri khata ke sae mein

hijab-e-nala-e-shab muntashir rahe kab tak
khamoshiyan bhi nihan hain sada ke sae mein

saubaton se gurezan ho kis liye ai 'zafar'
wajud apna hai jab ki qaza ke sae mein
