Daraaz hai shab e ghum soz o saaz saath rahe

Daraaz hai shab e ghum soz o saaz saath rahe

musaafiro ! Mai e meenaa gudaaz saath rahe

qadam qadam pe andhero.n kaa saamnaa hai yahaa.n

safar kathin hai, dum e sholaa saaz saath rahe.n

Ye koh kyaa hai ye dasht e alam fazaa kyaa hai

jo ik tiri nag e dil nawaaz saath rahe

koi rahe naa rahe ek aah ek aansoo

basd khilwas, basd imtiyaaz saath rahe

ye maikadaa hai nahin sair e dair, sair e haram

nazar afeef dil e paak baaz saath rahe

MakHdoom Muhi Uddin
