ham dhundte hain baagh men is gul-ezar ko
jalva ne jis ke rang diya hai bahar ko
tum jaate ho to jaao khuda ke liye magar
le jaao apne saath na sabr-o-qarar ko
ham husn-e-itiqad se samjhe chadhae phuul
gul kar diya jo us ne charagh-e-mazar ko
di kis ne is ko ja ke naved-e-qudum-e-yar
hai nagavar baagh se jaana bahar ko
us but men nur-e-qudrat-e-khaliq hai mustatar
patthar ne kya chhupaya hai dil men sharar ko
‘mushtaq’ gham ko paas na aane de zinhar
khush khush guzar zindagi-e-mustaar ko
