roenge chashm-e-tar na dekhenge
khwab wo umr bhar na dekhenge

fath ka khwab dekhne wale
apne shanon pe sar na dekhenge

hum sawali nikal pade ghar se
koi darwaza dar na dekhenge

dhup ka saeban saron par hai
rah mein hum shajar na dekhenge

chah kar bhi tujhe na chahenge
dekh kar bhi magar na dekhenge

pastiyon se bulandiyan kam hain
hum ye zer-o-zabar bhi dekhenge

shauq-e-didar hai 'jamil' ahmad
hum tere baam-o-dar na dekhenge
