gar dost bhi sau jafa karega
dushman bechaara kya karega

jab band-e-qaba wo wa karega
gul chaak apni qaba karega

kar ke koi chah kya karega
fariyaad-o-fughan kya karega

dagh apna charagh-e-khana-e-dil
ta subh-e-abad jala karega

juz be-kasi apna aur hai kaun
jo dawa-e-khun-baha karega

sar-gashtagi ki na rah ho tai
jab tak ki na sar ko pa karega

jab kat ke girega us ke pa par
sar sajda-e-shukr ada karega

jab umr hi bewafa hai 'besabr'
phir kaun bhala wafa karega
