har taraf jalwa-e-farozan hai
sahn-e-hasti mein ek charaghan hai

husn hi husn hai nigahon mein
zarra zarra guhar-badaman hai

phul to khil rahe hain gulshan mein
apni qismat hai apna daman hai

ai wafa-na-shanas waqt bata
aaj phir kis se ahd-o-paiman hai

zindagi se janam ka sath mera
zindagi mujh se kyon gurezan hai

aaj mausam hasin hai jaan-e-bahaar
aaj chaliye ki baad-o-baran hai

maujzan ek qulzum-e-khun hai
dubi dubi si nabz-e-dauran hai

sans lena nasib hai mujh ko
zindagi pe bhi tera ehsan hai

jis ko insaniyat se nafrat hai
ahd-e-hazir ye tera insan hai

jis ki takmil aaj tak na hui
main hun aur mere dil ka arman hai

'faiz' ko puchhte raho yaro
sunte hain ek ajib insan hai
