Tou Dost kisi ka bhi Sitamgar na howa Tha

Tou Dost kisi ka bhi Sitamgar na howa Tha
Orron pey hai wo zulm ko Mujh per na howa tha

Chora Mey Nakh-shab ki tarah Dast-e-Qaza Ney
Khursheed Hunuz isky Barabar na howa Tha

Toufeeq Beandaaza Himmat hai Azal sey
Ankhon Mein hai wo Qatra key Gohar na howa tha

Jab Tak key Na dekha tha Qad Yaar ka Aalim
Mein mu-taqid  fitna Mahash Na howa tha

Mein Sadda Dil Azurdagi Yasey Khush Hon
Yani Sabaq shoq Mukarrar Na howa tha

Jari thi Asad Dagh Jigar sey Meri Tehseel
Atashkadda Jageer Samundur Na howa tha
