lutf ka dije sabaq husn-e-gharib-azar ko
phenkiye khanjar ko rakhiye hath se talwar ko

ab ye tufan-e-musibat kam na hoga hashr tak
nabz dubegi duba kar aap ke bimar ko

mai-kada hai wusat-abaadi-e-alam ka raaz
qatre mein dariya nazar aata hai har mai-khwar ko

ai mujahid jehd-e-rang-e-khaksari hai zarur
todna lazim hai pahle is but-e-pindar ko

han meri diwangi begana-e-kulfat nahin
aablon ne rakh liya hai dil mein nok-e-khar ko

apni hadd-e-akhiri par ilm ban jata hai jehl
be-khudi lazim hai ai dil hasrat-e-didar ko

hai sukun-e-qalb-e-muztar shahid-e-taskin-e-dard
kyon na ho ummid sehat ki tere bimar ko

ye bhi ek eajaz tha 'masud' husn-e-dost ka
dekhte hi dekhte hosh aa gaya bimar ko
