Koi Ummid Na Bar Aai Shakebai Ki

koi ummid na bar aai shakebai ki

is ne baaton mein bahut hashiya-arai ki

ishq din-raat raha kaif-o-tarab mein sarshaar

husn ne saltanat-e-ishq pe darai ki

na mila par na mila apne masail ka hal

aastanon pe bahut hum ne jabin-sai ki

aah ai soz-e-darun mere junun se ab tak

manzilen sar na huin baadiya-paimai ki

soch ka loch kabhi un ko mayassar na hua

baz logon ne faqat qafiya-paimai ki

kar-e-bekar hui bus mein safar karta hun

ye bhi ek surat-e-be-kaif hai mahngai ki

sher kahta rahun bahta rahun apni rau mein

chheD chalti rahe ehsas ki purwai ki

ek sher aur suna de ki zamane bhar mein

dhum hai tere taghazzul ki tawanai ki

tang-zarfi hai mere wahm ka Thahra pani

Thahre pani pe jami kai hai KHud-rai ki

wa daregha ki zara qadr na ki duniya ne

'krishn-mohan' tere irfan ki gahrai ki
