na sakat hai zabt-e-gham ki na majal-e-ashk-bari
ye ajib kaifiyat hai na sukun na be-qarari

tera ek hi sitam hai tere har karam pe bhaari
gham-e-do-jahan se de di mujhe tu ne rustagari

meri zindagi ka hasil tere gham ki pasdari
tere gham ki aabru hai mujhe har khushi se pyari

ye qadam qadam balaen ye sawad-e-ku-e-jaanan
wo yahin se laut jae jise zindagi ho pyari

tere jaan-nawaz wade mujhe kya fareb dete
tere kaam aa gai hai meri zud-e'tibari

meri raat muntazir hai kisi aur subh-e-nau ki
ye sahar tujhe mubarak jo hai zulmaton ki mari
