gham itne apne daman-e-dil se lipat gae
tujh se bichhad ke hum kai qiston mein bat gae

kyun ye dayar mere liye tang sa laga
kya baat hai ki daman-e-sahra simat gae

is se kahin bhi nam tumhaara nahin mila
hum har waraq kitab-e-wafa ke palat gae

tum ghair se nibhao wafa hum ko bhul kar
jao tumhaari rah se hum aaj hat gae

ab jhelna padega azab-e-gunah-e-ishq
us but-numa khuda ke irade palat gae

jab se mata-e-dard mili mujh ko ai 'zafar'
qad mere samne mere yaron ke ghat gae
