Hum ki magalub-e-guman the pahale
phir waheen hain ki jahan the pahale
khvahishen jhurriyan ban kar ubharin
zakhm sine mein nihan the pahale
ab to har baat pe ro dete hain
vaqif-e-sud-o-ziyan the pahale
dil se jaise koi kanta nikala
ashk aankhon se ravan the pahale
ab faqat anjumanarai hain
aitabar-e-dil-o-jan the pahale
dosh pe sar hai ki hai barf jami
hum to sholon ke zuban the pahale
ab to har taza sitam hai taslim
hadase dil pe garan the pahale
