rahen dhuan dhuan hain safar gard gard hai
ye manzil-e-murad to bas dard dard hai

apne padosiyon ko bhi pahchanta nahin
mahsur apne khol mein ab fard fard hai

is mausam-e-bahaar mein ai baghban bata
chehra har ek phul ka kyun zard zard hai

laffaziyon ka garm hai bazar kis qadar
dast-e-amal hamara magar sard sard hai

kaisa tazad shakh-e-tamanna mein hai 'asad'
khud ye hari hari hai samar zard zard hai
