Karb chehre se mah-o-saal ko dhoya jaye
Aaj fursat se kahin beth k roya jaye
Phir kisi nazm ki tamhid uthai jaye
Phir kisi jism ko lafzom mein samoya jaye
Kuch tou raat ki sarhad mein utarne ki saza
Garm sooraj ko samandar mein daboya jaye
Itni jaldi tou badalte nahi hon ge chehre
Gard-aalood hain aaiyno ko dhoya jaye
Mout se khof ziada jeene se bezar hain log
Is almiye pe hansa jaye ya k roya jaye
