hamari fikr bhi khasta hamare kar ghalat
hamari jast ne bakhsha hamein hisar ghalat

kahin ye qalb-e-hawadis ki tab la na sake
kahin ye dil hi na le le koi qarar ghalat

ye mera dil hai tamannaen pal leta hai
hua hai is pe bhi saya koi sawar ghalat

mujhe yaqin hai na aaenge meri turbat par
bara-e-fatiha chuniyega kab mazar ghalat

ye kis ne abru-e-khamdar se mujhe dekha
kahan se aa gai haq mein mere bahaar ghalat

mere nasib ke qausain ne diya tohfa
kabhi to lail-e-musalsal kabhi nahaar ghalat

main apni auj ka tum ko hisab kya deta
meri lakir thi uljhi mera madar ghalat

main apne zakhm-e-jigar soz-o-saz kyun likkhun
hazar bar gina phir bhi hai shumar ghalat
