aa ki mirii jaan ko qaraar nahii.n hai

aa.iina kyuu.n na duu.n ki tamaashaa kahe.n jise

aabruu kyaa KHaak us gul kii ki gulshan me.n nahii.n

aah ko chaahiye ik umr asar hote tak

ba-naala haasil-e-dil-bastagii faraaham kar

barshikaal-e-girya-e-aashiq hai dekhaa chaahiye

bas-ki dushvaar hai har kaam kaa aasaa.n honaa

bazm-e-shaahanshaah me.n ash.aar kaa daftar khulaa

be-e'tidaaliyo.n se subuk sab me.n ham hu.e
