Aashna-e-dard Tu Ai KHugar-e-ishrat Nahin

aashna-e-dard tu ai KHugar-e-ishrat nahin

lazzat-e-gham ke barabar dusri lazzat nahin

qadr-o-qimat dil ki hai jab tak hai is mein mauj-e-dard

jis mein rang-o-bu us gul ki kuchh waqat nahin

nala-e-shab-gir ho pur-josh ho tufan-e-ashk

abr-e-baran ki bhi is ke samne qimat nahin

lutf-e-dard-e-dil se to hai be-KHabar ai chaaragar

is jahan mein is se baDh kar dusri neamat nahin

ye jigar baqi hai gham ki mehmani ke liye

dil subuk-KHatir hai is mein KHun ki rangat nahin

dil diya hai jis ko waiz hai hamein us ki talash

hur-e-jannat se shanasai nahin ulfat nahin

daulat-e-duniya-e-dun sarchashma-e-afkar hai

baadshahi ko faqiri se koi nisbat nahin

zist mein meri kami thi ek gham-e-jaan-kah ki

mil gaya qismat se wo bhi ab koi hasrat nahin

ho gaya afsos 'hafiz' na-murad-e-arzu

DhunDhta hai aur kahin taskin ki surat nahin
