dil-gawara chubhan hi marti hai
ab tumhaari lagan hi marti hai

qadr kya dawa-e-anal-haq ki
fikr-e-dar-o-rasan hi marti hai

ruh ki bahs kis liye ki yahan
aarzu-e-badan hi marti hai

sham-e-gosha-nashini kya kije
subh-e-sair-e-chaman hi marti hai

is kahani mein ek riwayat se
kyun koi gul-badan hi marti hai
