rah-e-hayat mein dil-e-viran duhai de
dushman ko bhi khuda na gham-e-ashnai de

main sahib-e-qalam hun mujhe ai shuur-e-fan
aae na jo giraft mein aisi kalai de

duniya fareb-e-rishta-e-baham na de mujhe
jo bhai-chaargi ka ho paikar wo bhai de

main apna hath apne lahu mein dubo na lun
jab tak wo mere hath mein dast-e-hinai de

khanjar hai jis ke hath mein patthar hai jis ka dil
kya us ke samne koi apni safai de

jis par mere lahu ne sajaya tha naqsh-e-dil
ai kash phir mujhe wo hatheli dikhai de

is taza karbala mein bhi yarab dua ye hai
isar ko nasheb wafa ko tarai de

duri qarin-e-maslahat-e-waqt hai agar
qurbat ke nam par mujhe dagh-e-judai de

sehn-e-chaman mein gosh-bar-awaz hai 'saba'
shayad dil-e-shamim ki dhadkan sunai de
