is qadar hum na-tawan-o-zar hain
bazu apne machhliyon ke khar hain

chaak chaak apna gareban ho chuka
in dinon dast-e-junun bekar hain

rote hain ashkon ke badle khun gar
abr hain hum lekin aatish-bar hain

jate hain gulshan se le o baghban
hum agar teri nazar mein khar hain

aastin se pochhiye kahe ko ashk
ab to munh par zakhm damn-dar hain

dekh kar tujh ko magar hairan hue
aaine jo pusht-bar-diwar hain

le ud ai wahshat ki apni panw ke
muntazir khar-e-sar-e-diwar hain

aankhen hain khunkhar teri ai masih
kya hai be-parhez ye bimar hain

khud-bakhud apna janaza hai rawan
hum ye kis ke kushta-e-raftar hain

saya-e-khanjar mein aaya khwab-e-marg
wah kya talea mere bedar hain

hum hain ranjur apne ashk-o-ah se
hai buri aab-o-hawa bimar hain

ab to hai meinh ka barasna apne hath
aastinen abr-e-dariya-bar hain

sarw-o-shamsad-o-sanobar bagh mein
naqsha-ha-e-qamat-e-dildar hain

kaun hai bezar in rozon 'wazir'
hum jo apne zist se bezar hain
