ummid-e-subh-e-bahaaran khizan se khinchte hain
ye tir roz dil-e-na-tawan se khinchte hain

kashid-e-tishna-labi qatra qatra pite hain
ye aab-e-talkh gham-e-raftagan se khinchte hain

main un se luqma-e-tayyab ki dad kya chahun
jo apna rizq dahan-e-sagan se khinchte hain

subu se lazzat-e-yak-guna lete hain lekin
khumar-e-khas lab-e-dostan se khinchte hain

dikhai padta hai aada mein ek chehra-e-dost
so hath sahibo saif o sinan se khinchte hain

khayal-e-taza se karte hain khwab-e-nau takhliq
'zafar' zaminen nai aasman se khinchte hain
