Din ko mismaar huey, Raat ko tameer huey
Khuwab hi khuwab faqat rooh ki jageer huey

Umar bhar likhtey rahey phir bhi warq saada raha
Janay kiya lafz they jo hum se tehreer na huey

Ye alag dukh hain k hain tere dukhon se azaad
Ye alag qaid hay hum kyun nahi zanjeer huey

Deda-o-dil mein tere aks ki tashkeel se hum
Dhool se phool huey, Rung se tasveer huey

Kuch nahi yaad k shab raqs ki mehfil mein Faraz
Hum juda kis se huey, Kis se baghal-geer huey
