karta hai rahm kaun kisi be-gunah par
padte hain taziyane yahan dad-khwah par

shikwa hai bewafai-e-jaanan ka is qadar
hum mar chale hanuz na aae wo rah par

dil khud hua asir zanakhdan-e-yar mein
lati hai tishnagi hi pyase ko chah par

shabnam ko mahw karta hai jis tarah aaftab
ya-rab nigah-e-mehr ho mere gunah par

aashiq pe rahm kar shah-e-khuban agar hai tu
wajib hai shafqat-e-ghoraba baadshah par

wo chehra-e-kitabi hai zulf-e-dota mein yun
mushaf ko jaise rakhte hain dast-e-gawah par
