kaam koi to kabhi waqt se aage kar ja
ai dil-e-zinda mere marne se pahle mar ja

saghar-e-chashm ko zahrab se khali kar de
aur jo bharta hai tu paimana-e-hasti bhar ja

tishnagi kam ho magar dur na hone pae
apne pyase ko na sairab-e-mohabbat kar ja

khak se ta-ba-falak khwab ka phaila daman
koi koshish na kahin aur tamanna har ja

tu musafir tere kis kaam ki shohrat 'sayyad'
ye sakhawat sar-e-dahliz-e-rafiqan dhar ja
