Ye Aur Daur Hai Ab Aur Kuchh Na Farmae

ye aur daur hai ab aur kuchh na farmae

magar 'hafiz' ko ye baat kaun samjhae

wafa ka josh to karta chala gaya madhosh

qadam qadam pe mujhe dost hosh mein lae

pari-ruKHon ki zaban se kalam sun ke mera

bahut se log meri shakl dekhne aae

bahisht mein bhi mila hai mujhe azab-e-shadid

yahan bhi maulwi-sahab hain mere ham-sae

azab-e-qabr se bad-tar sahi hayat-e-'hafiz'

ye jabr hai to ba-juz-sabr kya kiya jae
