main apne ijz-e-zat ka izhaar ho gaya
gum-karda-rah-e-manzil-e-dushwar ho gaya

kal tak tha ek phul mahakta hua magar
aisi chalin hawaen ki main khar ho gaya

be-sud ho gai hain sila-rahmiyan tamam
khud apne haq mein aaj main talwar ho gaya

chehra chhupae phirta hun khud apne aap se
main jo teri nazar mein gunahgar ho gaya

ab aur de fareb na ai gardish-e-jahan
khud ko sanbhaal nind se bedar ho gaya

mahsus ho rahi hai tumhaari kami 'ziya'
tum se mile zamana mere yar ho gaya
