meri qismat mein wasl us ka agar ai aasman hota
to tu bhi mehrban hota khuda bhi mehrban hota

sitam ke baad hota hai karam bhi ye agar sach hai
mere dil par bhi aisa hi sitam ai jaan-e-jaan hota

balaen le ke dushman mar gaya meri bala samjhe
samajh mein meri jab aata tamasha ye yahan hota

zamin par sone walon ko hiqarat se na thukraata
hamari tarah gardish mein jo tu ai aasman hota

chaman udi ghata saqi surahi aur paimana
ye sab saman hote shaikh ka phir imtihan hota

suna hai fasl-e-gul aai hui phir gulshan-arai
chaman mein kash apna bhi qafas ai baghban hota

wo mera ro ke kahna un ke 'shankar' hans ke farmana
are ulfat mein koi bhi nahin hai shadman hota
