kya sabab batlaen hanste hanste baham ruk gae
KHud-baKHud kuchh wo khinche idhar udhar hum ruk gae
Mirza Ali Lutf
na kar ai 'lutf' nahaq rahrawan-e-dair se hujjat
yahi rasta to kha kar pher hai kabe ko ja nikla
Mirza Ali Lutf
nahin wo hum ki kahne se tere har but ke bande hon
kare paida bhi gar naseh tu us ghaarat-gar-e-din sa
Mirza Ali Lutf
paki-e-daman-e-gul ki kha na ai bulbul qasam
raat bhar sarshaar-e-kaifiyyat main shabnam se raha
Mirza Ali Lutf
yaad ne un tang kuchon ki faza sahra ki dekh
har qadam par jaan mari hai dil-e-nakaam ki
Mirza Ali Lutf
yahi to kufr hai yaran-e-be-KHudi ke huzur
jo kufr-o-din ka mere yar imtiyaz raha
Mirza Ali Lutf
