jab bhi dil khol ke roe honge
log aram se soe honge
baaz auqat ba-majburi-e-dil
ham to kya aap bhi roe honge
sub.h tak dast-e-saba ne kya kya
phuul kanton men piroe honge
vo safine jinhen tufan na mile
na-ḳhudaon ne Duboe honge
raat bhar hanste hue taron ne
un ke aariz bhi bhigoe honge
kya ajab hai vo mile bhi hon ‘faraz’
ham kisi dhyan men khoe honge
