Sher of Laxmi Narayan Shafiq
hameñ kunj-e-qafas meñ chhoḌ kar sayyād jaatā hai
ḳhudā jaane ki ham se ḳhush hai yā nāshād jaatā hai
hamein kunj-e-qafas mein chhoD kar sayyaad jata hai
KHuda jaane ki hum se KHush hai ya nashad jata hai
aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
