qaidi koi tazeer ke qabil hi nahi tha
zandan me kahin shor e salasil hi nahi tha
de ge meri tooti hui talwar gawahi
medan me hazimat ka main qaail hi nahi tha
han behar tamasha bari makhlooq thi lekin
jo ronaq e maqtal ho wo bismal hi nahi tha

awwal sham sitarey meray ashkon ke gohar
chand lagta he mera toq e gulu aakhir shab
meri sheh rag se ubharti hen sahar ki kirnen
meray daman pe chamakta he lahu aakhir shab
yun bujhe ghar me sajata hun charaghon ki qatar
jis tarha aaj bhi ajae ga tu aakhir shab
