jinhen tha fakhr nawab-o-najib hote hain
ab un ke ghar mein tamashe ajib hote hain

yazid-e-waqt ko jo barmala hi tok sake
raqam wo nam hi zer-e-salib hote hain

wo jan ko tu ne bada dil diya hai mere khuda
to kyun ye hota hai aksar gharib hote hain

jo log mazhab-o-maslak ki had se upar hain
hamare dil ke wo yaksar qarib hote hain

duaon mein jinhen man bap yaad hi na rakhen
amir-e-waqt hon lekin gharib hote hain
