wo dilkashi teri kya husn-e-yar baqi hai
shabab baqi na us ka khumar baqi hai

nigah-e-shauq ne aankhon se un ke pi thi kabhi
us ek jam ka ab tak khumar baqi hai

tumhaare wada-e-farda ka hai yaqin ab tak
tamam umr kati intizar baqi hai

tasalliyon mein mitaya shuur-e-gham tum ne
tumhin batao kahan eatibar baqi hai

mizaj-e-momin-e-millat samajh mein aaya hai
jahan mein tazkira-e-zulfiqar baqi hai

rahega taj saron par ya sar katen us ja
is ek azm pe dar-o-madar baqi hai

badal saka na mizaj-e-junun abhi main ne
'sharar' zehn pe kuchh intizar baqi hai
