koi us zalim ko samjhata nahin
wo sitam karne se baz aata nahin

dasht-e-gham mein kab mera naqsh-e-qadam
har qadam pe aankh dikhlata nahin

dard-e-furqat se zaban danton mein hai
kya kahun kuchh bhi kaha jata nahin

chashm-e-dil se dekh use tu dekh le
chashm-e-zahir se nazar aata nahin

sabr-e-shauq-e-wasl-e-jaanan kya karun
par laga kar bhi uda jata nahin

kab khayal-e-zulf mein har raat ko
dil pe mere sanp lahraata nahin

gul se nisbat kiya tere rukhsar ko
ye to wo gul hai jo kumhlata nahin

dard-e-furqat se hai ab honton pe dam
phir bhi zalim ko taras aata nahin

jaan li hai jalwa-e-rukhsar ne
qabr ki zulmat se ghabraata nahin

husn ki khuddariyan to dekhiye
be-khudi mein bhi wo hath aata nahin

wo nahin aate to nadir kya gala
hosh jab do do dopahar aata nahin
