kya badal doge tum ik nazar se
be-qarari to hai umr bhar se
dosto shahr-e-jan jal raha hai
ab kahan jaoge aur kidhar se
zaḳhm hain dil pe kya kya na dekho
phuul chun lo lab-e-naghmagar se
jaag kar raat ham ne guzari
puchh lo karvan-e-sahar se
zulmat-e-shab hai ‘javed’ aur ham
chand nikle na jaane kidhar se
