hota nahin zauq-e-zindagi kam
buniyaad-e-hayat hai tera gham

ehsas-e-jamal ubhar raha hai
jab se tera iltifat hai kam

tere hi ghamon ne mujh ko bakhshi
kaunde ki lapak ghazal ka ram

saman-e-sabaat hain safar mein
ummid ki pech rah ke kham

shamon ki lawen hain ya zabanen
aansu hain ki ehtijaj-e-paiham

anjum se khilaegi shagufe
shabnam se ladi hui shab-e-gham

tufan ka muntazir khada hai
ye ain sahar ko shab ka aalam
