leta hua hun saya-e-ghurbat mein ghar se dur
dil se qarin hain ahl-e-watan aur nazar se dur

jab tak hai dil rahin-e-maal-o-asir-e-aql
rahna hai tujh se aur teri rahguzar se dur

ai kaif un ki mast nigahon mein chhup ke aa
ai dard-e-dam zadan mein ho mere jigar se dur

ek din ulatne wali hai zahid bisat-e-zohd
kab tak rahega dil nigah-e-fitna-gar se dur

wo koi zindagi hai jawani hai wo koi
ai dost jo hai tere jamal-e-nazar se dur

kya aai tere ji mein ki taqdir yun mujhe
phenka hai la ke wadi-e-ghurbat mein ghar se dur

ai husn-e-be-panah batae koi mujhe
duniya ki kaun chiz hai tere asar se dur

allah re nasib ki pai hai wo fughan
jo umr bhar rahi hai fareb-e-asar se dur

'altaf' naz apni gadai pe hai mujhe
daman hai us ka saya-e-lal-o-gohar se dur
