dua tasir se aari wazaif raegan yani
amal radd-e-bala ke ho gae sare dhuan yani

haqiqat kya hai is ki kaun jaane kaun batlae
raha hai zindagi ka ham-safar paiham guman yani

badalte ja rahe hain zawiye suraj ki nazron ke
zamin naraaz lagti hai khafa hai aasman yani

jo dekhoge to lagta hai sarab-e-dasht bhi dariya
jo socho tum agar to khwab sa hai ye jahan yani

chalo anjam ko aaghaz ke nuqte pe le aaen
bichhadte hain wahin chal kar mile the hum jahan yani

jahan-e-rang-o-bu ki bas haqiqat aur kya hogi
guzargah-e-zamana ka hai shayad ye nishan yani

hai bas itna faqat hum aap ko masruf rakhte hain
wagarna shairi 'jawed' hai kar-e-ziyan yani
