Dil ki basti mein karbala barpa
lashay yadon k khaak mein ghiltan
kheima-e-fiqr zad pe shoalon ki
harf sajda kunan hain honton per
har taraf al-atash ki awazein
maan nezon pay hain tarazu huey
dharkno k galu pay khanjar hai
khab k sar say chin chuki hai rida
bain uthtay hain dil ki nagri say
pyar ki alqama pay pehray hain
zeest ko daan abla pai
dast-e-qatil mein zulf subha ki
ashk arzan huey hain palkon pay
phir muharram kaa chand nikla hai
