Zakhm ko phul to sar sar ko saba kahte hain Jane kya daur hai kya log hain kya kahte hain
Kya qayamat hai ke jin ke liye ruk ruk ke chale Ab vahi log hamain abalapa kahte hain
Koi batalao ke ik umr ka bichara mahabub Ittefaqan kahin mil jaye to kya kahte hain
Ye bhi andaz-e-sukhan hai ke jafa ko teri Gamza-o-ishva-o-andaz-o-ada kahte hain
Jab talak dur hai tu teri parastish kar lain Ham jise chu na sakain us ko khuda kahte hain
Kya tajjub hai ke ham ahl-e-tamanna ko ‘faraz’ Wo jo maharum-e-tamanna hain bura kahte hain
