Tamaam raat ki tafkeer ka nateeja hay

ye shehr mazi ki tazkeer ka nateeja hay

nahi tha ba’es-e-tasleeb mera jurm magar

teri nigah main tehqeer ka nateeja hay

nahi hun qaid magar phir bhe urr nahi sakta

kisi chupi hui zanjeer ka nateeja hay

main jhonpari main hoon or tu makken-e-mehel sara

ameer-e-sher ! yeh taqdeer ka nateeja hay

bhigo k rakh dia ashko’n main hum nay mehfil ko

gham-e-hayaat ki tafseer ka nateeja hay
