hum ek umr jale sham-e-rahguzar ki tarah

junun KHud-numa KHud-nigar bhi nahin

lutf ka rabt hai koi na jafa ka rishta

milega dard to darman ki aarzu hogi

sar-ta-ba-qadam ek hasin raaz ka aalam

hamari tarah KHarab-e-safar na ho koi

rah-e-talab mein kise aarzu-e-manzil hai

junun mein aur KHirad mein dar-haqiqat farq itna hai

gham-e-zindagi ek musalsal azab

chhaTe ghubar-e-nazar baam-e-tur aa jae
