tez jab KHanjar-e-bedad kiya jaega
hum gharibon ka gala yaad kiya jaega
ghair ko KHush hamein nashad kiya jaega
kab talak ye sitam ijad kiya jaega
ye to batlao hamein shahr basane walo
dil ka virana kab aabaad kiya jaega
aur kya hoga tere ahd-e-sitam mein ai dost
roz taza sitam ijad kiya jaega
ye jahan murda-paraston ka jahan hai yaro
hum na honge to hamein yaad kiya jaega
dast-o-bazu se bhi kuchh kaam liya jae 'hafiz'
ta-ba-kai shikwa-e-sayyaad kiya jaega
