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..
