darogh-goi ki fitrat ko aag lag jae
tumhaari doghli surat ko aag lag jae

na jaane kitne hi logon ko mar dala hai
khuda kare ki mohabbat ko aag lag jae

faqir-e-shahr ko faqa-kashi ne mar diya
amir-e-shahr ki daulat ko aag lag jae

kahin mile jo wafa to kharid kar rakh lo
na jaane kab yahan qimat ko aag lag jae

maal-e-khuftagi dekho ye qaum chikh rahi
zahin fikr ki ghaflat ko aag lag jae

haqir samjhe sabhi ko zalil karta phire
ana-parast ki shohrat ko aag lag jae

badal sake na adawat ko jo ukhuwwat se
to aise logon ki sohbat ko aag lag jae

chhupa ho maqsad-e-shohrat agar bhalai mein
to aisi izzat-o-shohrat ko aag lag jae

firaq-e-jaanan se 'asad' ka dil hua chhalni
dua-e-dil hai ki hijrat ko aag lag jae
