wo dil nahin hai jis mein teri aarzu na ho
wo gul nahin nasib jise rang-o-bu na ho

dil jitne ko yar ka jata hai bazm mein
koshish mein kaamyab khudaya adu na ho

aata nahin hai sher mere zehn mein koi
jab tak ki wo hasin mere ru-ba-ru na ho

duniya pe dil ki baat na khul jae is liye
nazron se ho zaban se agar guftugu na ho

baqi shab-e-firaq hai dil ho gaya tahi
phir aankh kaise roe jo dil mein lahu na ho

ai rab hamare dil mein bhi aa kar qiyam kar
auqat us ki kya hai ki jis dil mein tu na ho

'zakir' amal se bante hain insan zi-waqar
zinda nahin wo log jinhen justuju na ho
