apne bare mein jab bhi socha hai

rah-e-KHulus mein behtar hai sar jhuka rakhna

wo meri duniya ka malik tha magar mera na tha

hausle apne rahnuma to hue

be-wafa hi sahi zamane mein

dekhiye to hai karwan warna

baDa ajib hai tahzib-e-irteqa ke liye

na qurb-e-zat hi hasil na zaKHm-e-ruswai

apne bare mein jab bhi socha hai
