jab koi bhi khaqan sar-e-baam na hoga
phir ahl-e-zamin par koi ilzam na hoga

kal wo hamein pahchan na pae sar-e-rahe
shayad unhen ab hum se koi kaam na hoga

phir kaun samajh paega asrar-e-haqiqat
jab faisla koi bhi sar-e-am na hoga

ye ahd-e-rawan khak-nishan dhyan mein rakkho
phir dhundoge kis ko jo koi nam na hoga

banne ko hai ek roz parindon ka muqaddar
utrenge to ham-rang-e-zamin dam na hoga

mahfil mein agar zikr ho arbab-e-wafa ka
aisa nahin 'rahat' ki tera nam na hoga
