mizhgan pe aaj yas ke moti bikhar gae
zulmat badhi jo raat ki tare nikhar gae

kaisi ziya hai ye jo munawwar hain baam-o-dar
su-e-falak ye kis ki fughan ke sharar gae

shikwe hain aasman se zamin se shikayaten
ilzam un ke jaur ke kis kis ke sar gae

mahfil mein aai kis ki sada-e-shikast-e-dil
saqi ke hath ruk gae saghar thahar gae

sina-figar phulon se khushbu nikal padi
shabnam ke aansuon se gulistan nikhar gae

uljhi thi jin mein ek zamane se zindagi
kyun ai gham-e-hayat wo gesu sanwar gae
