jab kabhi hum tere kuche se guzar jate hain
lauh-e-idrak pe kuchh aur ubhar jate hain

husn se lijiye tanzim-e-do-alam ka sabaq
subh hoti hai to gesu bhi sanwar jate hain

hum ne paya hai mohabbat ka khumar-e-abadi
kaise hote hain wo nashshe ki utar jate hain

itne khaif hain mai-o-mah se janab-e-waiz
nam-e-kausar bhi jo sunte hain to dar jate hain

mai-kada band muqaffal hain dar-e-dair-o-haram
dekhna hai ki 'shakil' aaj kidhar jate hain
