hamare qaul o amal mein tazad kitna hai
magar ye dil hai ki khush-e'tiqad kitna hai

ki jaise rang hi le aaega lahu apna
wafa pe apni hamein e'timad kitna hai

ye jaanta hai ki wada-shikan hai wo phir bhi
dil us ke wada-e-farda pe shad kitna hai

wo jis ne mujh ko faramosh kar diya yaksar
wo shakhs mujh ko magar ab bhi yaad kitna hai

hai ab to sare marasim ka inhisar us par
kisi ki zat se hum ko mafad kitna hai

har ek soch hai aaluda-e-hawas yaro
ragon mein qatra-e-khun ka fasad kitna hai

hai yun to mere raqibon mein ikhtilaf bahut
mere khilaf magar ittihad kitna hai
