hasin khvab na de ab yaqin-e-sada de mire vajud ko ya rab naya labada de gham-e-hayat ko phaila de asmanon

vo shakhs kya hai mire vaste sunaen use hava men mere havale se gungunaen use udaas raton men avara-gard banjare

qadam qadam pe naya imtihan hai mere liye ye shahr aaj bhi ik haft-khvan hai mere liye nahin hai ab

khush-shanasi ka sila karb ka sahra huun main kaun pahchane ki ik dasht-e-tamanna huun main sard paani ki zaban chatti

apne hone ka ik ik pal tajraba karte rahe nok-e-neza par bhi ham raqs-e-ana karte rahe ik musalsal jang thi

ana rahi na miri mutlaq-ul-inani ki mire vajud pe ik dil ne hukmarani ki karam kiya ki bikharne diya na

vada-e-vasl hai lazzat-e-intizar utha aur phir umr bhar ik gham-e-e’tibar utha us ka gham mere dil men hai ab bansuri

sulag raha hai koi shakhs kyuun abas mujh men bujhega kaise abhi shoala-e-nafas mujh men ajiib dard sa jaaga hai

ik haqiqat huun agar iz.har ho jaunga main jaane kis kis jurm ka iqrar ho jaunga main kaat lo ab

bada mukhlis huun paband-e-vafa huun kisi ki sadgi par ro pada huun miri qimat zamin-o-asman hai bahut anmol huun phir
