Dil ki basti mein karbala barpa

Lashay yadon k khaak mein ghiltan

Kheima-e-Fiqr zad pe shoalon ki

Harf sajda kunan hain honton per

Har taraf al-atash ki awazein

Maan nezon pay hain tarazu huey

Dharkno k galu pay khanjar hai

Khab k sar say chin chuki hai rida

Bain uthtay hain dil ki nagri say

Pyar ki alqama pay pehray hain

Zeest ko daan abla pai

Dast-e-Qatil mein zulf subha ki

Ashk arzan huey hain palkon pay

Phir Muharram kaa chand nikla hai
