Ab to mohsin kay tasawur main utar rab e jaleel,
is udasi main to pathar bhi khuda lagta hy
Aaj bhi ehd e guzishta ki har ik yad kay sath,
sans letay hain to barood ki bu ati hy
Ham say shab e khoon ki dastan poocho,
shehr waly to bekhabar thehry
Har dor e besada main har ik zulm kay khilaf,
ham ko he bolna tha ke tasweer ham na thay
Mohsin ghareeb log bhi tinkon ke dher hain,
malbay main dab gaye kabhi pani main beh gaye
Sab ahl e shehr phir dar e dushman pay jhuk gaye,
mohsin khula kay shehr ki taqdeer ham na thay
Shehr ki bheer main kahan khultay hain us kay naqoosh,
aao tanhai main sochen kay wo kya lagta hy
Ye ahd e malamat hy karo fikar saron ki,
dastar to koi bhi salamat nahi rakhta
