mukammal hai koi to bas khuda hai
hamare aap mein rakkha hi kya hai

kisi ki aaj hi duniya luti hai
kisi ko aaj hi sab kuchh mila hai

munasib hai agar to kat lije
hamara sar to pahle se jhuka hai

koi har haal mein mashkur tera
kisi ko har ghadi tujh se gila hai

bataen kis tarah hum 'shad' tum ko
hamara dil nahin hai karbala hai
