Hum aik umar se waqif hain, ab na samjhawo
Ke lutf kya hai mere meherban, sitam kya hai.

Sher

Aaye to yun ke jaise hamesha the meherban
Kar raha tha gham-e-jahan ka hisaab
Dil na umeed to nahi, na kaam hi to hai
Muhabbat karne walon ki tijarat bhi anokhi hoti hai
Tumhari yaad ke jab zakhm bharnay lagte hain
Dard itna hai ke har rag mein hai mehshar barpa
Saba ne phir dar-e-zindan pe aake di dastak
Uth kar to aa gaye hain teri bazm se magar
Nahi nigah mein manzil to justaju hi sahi
