Aur Sab Bhul Gae Harf Sadaqat Likhna

aur sab bhul gae harf sadaqat likhna

rah gaya kaam hamara hi baghawat likhna

lakh kahte rahen zulmat ko na zulmat likhna

hum ne sikha nahin pyare ba-ijazat likhna

na sile ki na sataish ki tamanna hum ko

haq mein logon ke hamari to hai aadat likhna

hum ne jo bhul ke bhi shah ka qasida na likha

shayad aaya isi KHubi ki badaulat likhna

is se baDh kar meri tahsin bhala kya hogi

paDh ke na-KHush hain mera sahab-e-sarwat likhna

dahr ke gham se hua rabt to hum bhul gae

sarw-qamat ko jawani ko qayamat likhna

kuchh bhi kahte hain kahin shah ke musahib 'jalib'

rang rakhna yahi apna isi surat likhna
