rahe duniya mein mahkum-e-dil-e-be-muddaa ho kar
khusha-anjam utthe bhi to mahrum-e-dua ho kar

watan ko chhod kar jis sar-e-zamin ko main ne izzat di
wahi ab khun ki pyasi hui hai karbala ho kar

batao aise bande par hansi aae ki ghaiz aae
dua mange musibat mein jo qasdan mubtala ho kar

khula aakhir fareb-e-mai chala jab dard ka saghar
bandha zor-e-khumar andesha-e-roz-e-jaza ho kar

nigah-e-'yas' hi goya dobara zindagi pai
jo chaunka khwab-e-ghaflat ke maze se aashna ho kar
