Mohabbat mustaqil gham hai , Mohabbat gham ka gehwara
Jo aansoo rang le aaye wohi daman ka sheh'para
Jissay arman ka khoon de kar be'naam-e-aarzu seecha
Khuda janay kahan hai woh jahan-e-zindagi araa
Mera zouq-e-khari'dari hai ik jins-e-garaan maya
Kabhi phoolon ka shaida'i , kabhi kaanton ka banjara
Jahan munsib Ataa hotay hain be'fikar-o-farasat bhi
Wahan her justagoo jhooti , wahan her azam na'kara
Basa auqaat choo leti hai daman kabirai ka
Tumhari jumbish-e-aabru , meri takhleeq-e-awara
Na'janay mohtasib kiyon meh'kaday ka naam detay hain
Jahan kuch aadmi kartay hain apnay dard ka chaara
Teray gaisoo khayalon ki girift-e-naaz se guzray
Keh jaisay aik jigi ban main lehraata hai do tara
Palat aaye hain shayed inqalab-e-deed kay lamhay
Nazar ki wusaton main doobta jata hai nazara
Faqat ik haath main toota hau "Saghar" uthane se
Larz utha hai ae yazdan ! teri azmat ka meenara
