rawish us chaal mein talwar ki hai
maut ushshaq-e-gunahgar ki hai

gul o gulshan se kabhi ji na lagae
ye sada murgh-e-giraftar ki hai

rashk-e-gulshan ho ilahi ye qafas
ye sada murgh-e-giraftar ki hai

nikhat-e-gul na saba bhi lai
ye sada murgh-e-giraftar ki hai

aa ke be-parda milen wo dam-e-naza
ye dua aashiq-e-bimar ki hai

pesh-e-mehrab na kyun sajde hon
surat us abru-e-khamdar ki hai

chaal wo chal ki na ho mahshar-khez
ye rawish charkh-e-jafakar ki hai

mujh ko hangama-e-mahshar se gharaz
bas tamanna tere didar ki hai

talab-e-rah-e-khuda mein lekin
pairwi haidar-e-karrar ki hai
