jis din se apna tarz-e-faqirana chhuT gaya
shahi to mil gai dil-e-shahana chhuT gaya

KHud apne shab-o-roz guzar jaenge lekin
shamil hai mere gham mein teri dar-badari bhi

Mustafa Zaidi

main kis ke hath pe apna lahu talash karun
tamam shahr ne pahne hue hain dastane

meri ruh ki haqiqat mere aansuon se puchho
mera majlisi tabassum mera tarjuman nahin hai

Mustafa Zaidi

nawak-e-zulm uTha dashna-e-andoh sambhaal
lutf ke KHanjar-e-be-nam se mat mar mujhe

Mustafa Zaidi

uh ke is virane mein teri yaad hi sab kuchh thi
aaj to wo bhi yun guzri jaise gharibon ka tyauhaa

Mustafa Zaidi

titliyan uDti hain aur un ko pakaDne wale
sai-e-nakaam mein apnon se bichhaD jate hain
