Bahaar aadhi guzar gai hae hum qaidi hain zindan ke

bahaar aadhi guzar gai hae hum qaidi hain zindan ke
gae kuchh aur kuchh jate hain din chaak-e-gareban ke

hazaron KHub-ru gae KHak mein gardish se dauran ke
jhalakte rang mein dekho muqayyash reze afshan ke

gaya to dard-e-sar par hasrat-e-zaKHm-e-doyam rah gai
wagarna hum teri shamshir ke mare hain ehsan ke

mera lohu bhi baad-az-marg qatil ke tasadduq hai
sanjaf-e-surKH mat samjhe koi gird is ke daman ke

hua hai dagh be-qadri se un ki musht-KHun mera
paDe koele hi kab mehndi mein dast-o-pa-e-KHuban ke

junun se KHak ho gae par bhi aashiq hat malte hain
bagule sare mein aTkal kiya 'uzlat' bayaban ke
