marka khatm hua jang abhi jari hai
dil ki manen ki khirad ki yahi dushwari hai

koi patta nahin hilta hai na khulti hai zaban
aah phir se kisi tufan ki tayyari hai

kyun na ye dekh ke binai dagha de jae
shams par bhi abhi zulmat ka fusun tari hai

ab ye hasrat bhi liye jate hain dil ki dil mein
ye to kah lete tera tir bahut kari hai

hae kam-zarfi-e-dil tu ne kahin ka na rakha
aah ne kah diya tazir bahut bhaari hai

tere mashkur hain hamdam kiya wazeh tu ne
feal-e-ghaarat-gari sayyaad ki na-chaari hai

waqt-e-furqat ye karam 'soz' pe barpa kar de
hans ke kah de ki ye inam-e-wafadari hai
