dhundhta phirta hai kabe mein sanam hai ki nahin
ai dil-e-nadan tujhe pas-e-haram hai ki nahin

phir wahi barq-e-tabassum khirman-e-dil par giri
aap hi kahiye ki ye zulm-o-sitam hai ki nahin

ai masiha-e-zamana ye bata deta mujhe
jo jigar mein dard hai mere wo kam hai ki nahin

jo khalish bechain kar deti hai mujh ko bar bar
aap ke sine mein bhi wo soz-e-gham hai ki nahin

mere saqi main nahin aata ghata le aai hai
dekhun tu bhi mail-e-lutf-o-karam hai ki nahin

ab ke rahbar jo banaen to parakh kar dekh len
ahl-e-dil ahl-e-nazar ahl-e-qalam hai ki nahin

pad ke hathon mein zamane ke zara 'hamdam' bata
zindagi waqf-e-alam mashq-e-sitam hai ki nahin
