kushta-e-naz-e-dil-ruba hain hum
zakhmi-e-khanjar-e-ada hain hum

kya kahen tum se hum ki kya hain hum
mazhar-e-nur-e-kibriya hain hum

aap par jab se mubtala hain hum
khwesh-o-begane se juda hain hum

aap hain apne husn par shaida
aap apne hi par fida hain hum

donon aalam se kuchh nahin matlab
kucha-e-yar ke gada hain hum

go ba-zahir hain surat-e-adam
fil-haqiqat khuda-numa hain hum

bas 'qamar' itna iftikhar hamein
yar ke naqsh-e-kafsh-e-pa hain hum
