zamane ho gae tere karam ki aas lagi
qarib-e-mai-kada sahra si mujh ko pyaas lagi
lahu rulate hain mujh ko suhavne manzar
chaTakti chandni tere bina udaas lagi
na us men mai hai na paani to pyaas kaise bujhe
ye zindagi mujhe TuuTa hua gilas lagi
ye garm garm se aansu bata rahe hain yahi
zarur aag kahin dil ke as-pas lagi
yahan to koi bhi malik nahin mire sahab
tamam ḳhalq mujhe ḳhvahishon ki daas lagi
jahez naam hi se rang uḌ gaya us ka
gharib baap ki beTi jahan-shanas lagi
kaḌakti dhuup men chal to paḌi dulhan ‘hasrat’
qadam qadam pe use raste men pyaas lagi
