Kaam aa saki na apni wafaai'n to kya karai'n, 
ik bewafa ko bhool na jaaye to kya karai'n, 
mujh ko ye etaraf duaoo'n mai'n hai asar, 
jaaye na arsh par jo duaai'n to kya karai'n, 
ik din ki bat ho to use bhool jaaye hum, 
naazil hoo'n roz dil pe balaye to kya karai'n, 
shab bhar to un ki yaad mai'n tare gina kiye, 
tarese din ko bhi nazar aaye to kya karai'n,   
ahad-e-tarab ki yaad mai'n roya kiye bahut, 
ab muskura ke bhool na jaaye to kya karai'n.
