nuqush-e-rahguzar-e-shauq sab mita dena
rahi hai jaan so use bhi kahin ganwa dena

rah-e-hayat mein har mod par hai ek uljhan
bichhad na jaun kahin dosto sada dena

ghubar-e-waqt ne dhundla diye hain is ke nuqush
zara charagh-e-mohabbat ki lau badha dena

suna hai shahr mein phir aa gaya hai wo qatil
mile to dosto mera pata bata dena

talab to karna meri umr-e-raegan ka hisab
hisab tul-e-shab-e-hijr ka chuka dena
