main dil ko chiir ke rakh duun ye ek surat hai bayan to ho nahin sakti jo apni halat hai

jan-sapari ke bhi arman zindagi ki aas bhi hifz-e-namus-e-alam bhi nish-e-gham ka paas bhi ḳhaak dar-bar hi sahi main ḳhaak

suna ke apne aish-e-tam ki rudad ke TukḌe uḌa dunga kisi din charḳh ki bedad ke TukḌe asiri ko ata

jo daagh ban ke tamanna tamam ho jaae hamen to ḳhuun bhi rona haram ho jaae shabab-e-dard miri zindagi ki

lutf le le ke piye hain qadah-e-gham kya kya ham ne firdaus banae hain jahannam kya kya ansuon ko bhi

apni bahar pe hansne vaalo kitne chaman ḳhashak hue apne rafu ko ginne vaalo kitne gareban chaak hue divanon ko

ye sanam rivayat-o-naql ke hubal-o-manat se kam nahin tera fikr vaiz-e-haq-nava kisi somnat se kam nahin kahin barq chamke main

charḳh ki sai-e-jafa koshish nakara hai gardish-e-dahr yahan jumbish-e-gahvara hai chand taron ke talatum se ye aata hai ḳhayal dil-e-vahshi

bahar aai zamana hua ḳharabati hamare dil men bhi ik lahr kaash aa jaati hava bhi sard hai bhigi hai

qasam in ankhon ki jin se lahu Tapakta hai mire jigar men ik atish-kada dahakta hai guzishta kahish o andoh
