jab apna muqaddar thahre hain zakhmon ke gulistan aur sahi
kuchh surkhi-e-khanjar aur siwa rangini-e-daman aur sahi

dildari-e-dast-e-qatil ko baqi hain hamin to aao chalo
is kucha-e-jaanan mein yaro ek jashn-e-charaghan aur sahi

katte hain katen bazu-o-gulu bahta hai bahe gulnar-e-lahu
ek marka-e-dil aur sahi ek marka-e-jaan aur sahi

katte hi kategi hijr ki shab liye dard chalo ta-subh-e-tarab
in shauq ki mari aankhon se kuchh wada-o-paiman aur sahi

bichhne do bisat-e-zist agar jite to sar-afraazi warna
sab haare hue to baithe ho ye naqd-e-dil-o-jaan aur sahi
