wo waqt meri jaan bahut dur nahin hai
jab dard se ruk jaengi sab zist ki rahen

aur had se guzar jaega andoh-e-nihani
thak jaengi tarsi hui nakaam nigahen

chhin jaenge mujh se mere aansu meri aahen
chhin jaegi mujh se meri be-kar jawani

shayad meri ulfat ko bahut yaad karogi
apne dil-e-masum ko nashad karogi

aaogi meri gor pe tum ashk bahane
nau-khez bahaaron ke hasin phul chadhane

shayad meri turbat ko bhi thukra ke chalogi
shayad meri be-sud wafaon pe hansogi

is waz-e-karam ka bhi tumhein pas na hoga
lekin dil-e-nakaam ko ehsas na hoga

al-qissa maal-e-gham-e-ulfat pe hanso tum
ya ashk bahati raho fariyaad karo tum

mazi pe nadamat ho tumhein ya ki masarrat
khamosh pada soega wamanda-e-ulfat
