jo ahd-e-nau men ḳhamir-e-bashar banaya jaa.e
sinan ko haath to neze ko sar banaya jaa.e
shab-e-hayat ko aise sahar banaya jaa.e
ik aftab sar-e-chashm-e-tar banaya jaa.e
mire havas ko ye kaun hukm deta hai
ki us ko markaz-e-qalb-o-nazar banaya jaa.e
main apne paikar-e-ḳhaki se mutma.in hi nahin
mire ḳhuda mujhe bar-e-digar banaya jaa.e
darun-e-zat kisi ka ye jabr hai mujh par
usi ko jaan usi ko jigar banaya jaa.e
sukun-o-rahat-e-jan ab kahin nahin mumkin
tumhare dil ko hi ab mustaqar banaya jaa.e
jo ham-nafas bhi ho hamraz bhi ho hamdam bhi
usi ko kyon na bhala ham-safar banaya jaa.e
bahut hi tang hain ye la-makan ke galiyare
so dasht-e-zat ko hi rahguzar banaya jaa.e
agar banana hi lazim hai kuchh to ai ‘ḳhalid’
ḳhud apni ḳhaak ko ab ke guhar banaya jaa.e
