izn-e-khiraam lete hue aasmaan se ham — Asrarul Haq Majaz

tum ne to hukm-e-tark-e-tamannaa sunaa diyaa
kis dil se aah tark-e-tamannaa kare koi

taskin-e-dil-e-mahzun na hui vo sai-e-karam farmaa bhi gae
is sai-e-karam ko kyaa kahiye bahlaa bhi gae taDpaa bhi gae

Dubo di thi jahaan tufaan ne kashti
vahaan sab the khudaa kyaa naa-khudaa kyaa

yaa to kisi ko jurat-e-didaar hi na ho
yaa phir miri nigaah se dekhaa kare koi

ham arz-e-vafaa bhi kar na sake kuchh kah na sake kuchh sun na sake
yaan ham ne zabaan hi kholi thi vaan aankh jhuki sharmaa bhi gae

tumhin to ho jise kahti hai naakhudaa duniyaa
bachaa sako to bachaa lo ki Dubtaa huun main

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

ret par ik nishaan hai shaayad
ye hamaaraa makaan hai shaayad

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

aasmaan jhaank rahaa hai 'khaalid'
chaand kamre mein mire utraa hai

kaho kyaa mehrbaan naa-mehrbaan taqdir hoti hai
kahaa maan ki duaaon mein baDi taasir hoti hai

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai
