zindagi gar de khuda aalam naya paida karun
roz ho ho kar fana rang-e-baqa paida karun

jalwa-gah-e-naz mein kyon kar rahun sabit-qadam
har jafa ka hai taqaza ek wafa paida karun

hasil-e-sad-zindagani ek mata-e-dard hai
hazrat-e-naseh ko ye zid hai dawa paida karun

yan to izhaar-e-tamanna wan khamoshi ki ada
muddaa ye hai dil be-muddaa paida karun

ek hi ka husn hai jalwa-numa kaunain mein
dusra to jab kahun jab dusra paida karun

chaarasaz dard-e-dil tu hi hai rab-e-be-niyaz
tere hote dusra kyon ai khuda paida karun

dil ka arman ek se hai ek badh kar intikhab
kaun sa hamdam mitaun kaun sa paida karun

sar ke dawe sab mita kar dil mein dekhun ru-e-dost
khud-numai ho chuki qibla-numa paida karun

husn-e-roz-afzun ki jalwe hain ghazab ki dilruba
kis tarah har roz 'hasrat' dil naya paida karun
