roz-e-khizan chaman mein jo dekha hazar ke
ek musht par pade the tale shakh-sar ke

yaran-e-ham-nashin-o-rafiqan-e-dost-dar
sab aashna hain zindagi-e-mustaar ke

jab mund gai ye aankh to ai dost baad-e-marg
phatke hai pas kaun kisi ke mazar ke

jo naqsh-e-pa rahe so rahe phir na uth sake
'waqif' ki tarah hae gire ku-e-yar ke
