ye bazm-e-shab hai yahan ilm-o-agahi kam hai

ai aabla-pa aur bhi raftar zara tez

KHud aazma ke bhi dawe ajal ke dekhte hain

mauj-e-gul barg-e-hina aab-e-rawan kuchh bhi nahin

rang-e-wahshat kam nahin zaKHm-e-tamasha kam nahin

apni parwaz ko main samt bhi KHud hi dunga

ai sahab-e-zar amir-e-ala tu kaun

tadbir-e-sihfa kise batae koi

ek shama sar-e-rah jali KHair hui

aKHlaq se ho gai aari duniya
