udas sham mein pazhmurda baad ban ke na aa

aam hai izn ki jo chaho hawa par likh do

aks kuchh na badlega aainon ko dhone se

makr-e-hayat ruKH ki qaba bhi utar di

ye kya hua ki sabhi ab to dagh jalne lage

yun bhi kiya hai humne haq-e-dilbari ada

ab mujhse sambhalti nahin ye dard ki saughat

hun wardat ka aini gawah main mujhse

unhen guman ki mujhe un se rabt hai salim

mata-e-dard maal-e-hayat hai shayad
