hamraaz-e-raqib ho gae ho
ab mere qarib ho gae ho

tum apna makan bhi ujalo
taron ke munib ho gae ho

bimar-e-ummid ko dua do
majbur tabib ho gae ho

tabut mein ruh phunkne ko
tum izn-e-salib ho gae ho

har parde ke baad ek parda
had darja ajib ho gae ho

sone ki angushtari mein 'ahmad'
angusht-e-gharib ho gae ho
