jo bad-aqida ho us ko khuda nahin milta
lagan ho dil mein to bande ko kya nahin milta

bade khulus se sab ki nazar ko takta hun
wafa-shanas koi aashna nahin milta

jise bhi dekhiye wo rahzani mein yakta hai
hazar dhundo magar rahnuma nahin milta

dayar-e-ghair mein sab hi aziz hain lekin
jo de khulus to wo ba-wafa nahin milta

tumhaare shahr mein ikhlas ki kami lekin
sitam hai koi bhi gham-ashna nahin milta

sukun-e-qalb ki daulat mili to hai 'zahid'
koi batae ki us dar se kya nahin milta
