tere jamal ki doshizgi ki qaus-e-quzah
nigah mahbat-e-idrak mein na kyun rakh lun

zamana-saz hun main aaina sifat hun main
hai waqt pichhe mere main jahan jidhar niklun

bhanwar bhanwar mujhe deta hai wusat-e-afkar
hisar-e-shor-o-talatum mein kab talak main rahun

kashakash-e-gham-e-hasti mujhe ijazat de
kunware-pan ki hatheli pe tera nam likhun

wo ek nam falak-ashna hayat-agin
main apni sanson mein paiham rawan-dawan dekhun
