jawedan gham ahd-e-ishrat tez-pa
jaane kya hai zindagi ka muddaa

uth rahe hain dam-ba-dam tufan-e-gham
ek dil hai main hun aur mera khuda

hai gham-e-dil manzil-e-aghaz mein
dekhiye hota hai ab anjam kya

haal-e-dil par aap kyon hain nauhagar
main ne pai hai mohabbat ki saza

dubti hai meri kashti dub jae
kaun ho minnat-pazir-e-nakhuda

aap bhi aakhir na mere ho sake
aur ab kis se ho ummid-e-wafa

'hosh' main na-ashna-e-intiqam
apne dushman ko bhi deta hun dua
