Bismil Azimabadi
saari ummid rahi jaati hai
haa.e phir sub.h hui jaati hai
niind aati hai na vo aate hain
raat guzri hi chali jaati hai
majma.a-e-hashr men rudad-e-shabab
vo sune bhi to kahi jaati hai
dastan puuri na hone paa.i
zindagi ḳhatm hui jaati hai
vo na aa.e hain to bechain hai ruuh
abhi aati hai abhi jaati hai
zindagi aap ke divane ki
kisi surat se kaTi jaati hai
gham men parvanon ke ik muddat se
sham.a ghulti hi chali jaati hai
aap mahfil se chale jaate hain
dastan baaqi rahi jaati hai
ham to ‘bismil’ hi rahe ḳhair hui
ishq men jaan chali jaati hai
