sar-e-firaq bhi tark-e-ana nahin hoti
ki tut jati hai diwar wa nahin hoti

mere alawa use khud se bhi mohabbat hai
aur aisa karne se wo bewafa nahin hoti

jab apne log mere tab hamein samajh aaya
ki maut sare dukhon ki dawa nahin hoti

ziyaada sochne se bachna chahiye 'mohan'
khayali zakhmon ki koi dawa nahin hoti
