wahi gham hai wahi iza risani
agarche ab nahin aankhon mein pani

jo bazari hain hakim ban gae hain
wo hain mahkum jo hain khandani

kabhi aisa karo kuchh kar dikhao
kahan tak aur kab tak lan-tarani

dikhaega miyan aankhen zamana
agar qaem rahegi be-zabani

sahaara do jahan mein bekason ko
purani ho gai hai ye kahani

mohabbat par hai aalam jaan-kani ka
adawat mein hai bijli si rawani
