Ab Jo Ek Hasrat-e-jawani Hai

ab jo ek hasrat-e-jawani hai

umr-e-rafta ki ye nishani hai

rashk-e-yusuf hai aah waqt-e-aziz

umr ek bar-e-karwani hai

girya har waqt ka nahin be-hech

dil mein koi gham-e-nihani hai

hum qafas-zad qaidi hain warna

ta chaman ek par-fishani hai

us ki shamshir tez hai hamdam

mar rahenge jo zindagani hai

gham-o-ranj-o-alam niko yan se

sab tumhaari hi mehrbani hai

KHak thi maujzan jahan mein aur

hum ko dhoka ye tha ki pani hai

yan hue 'mir' tum barabar KHak

wan wahi naz o sargirani hai
