agar yo.n hii ye dil sataataa rahegaa
Khwaja Mir Dard
agar yo.n hii ye dil sataataa rahegaa
to ik din meraa jii hii jaataa rahegaa
mai.n jaataa huu.N dil ko tere paas chho.De
merii yaad tujhako dilaataa rahegaa
galii se terii dil ko le to chalaa huu.N
mai.n pahu.Nchuu.Ngaa jab tak ye aataa rahegaa
qafas me.n ko_ii tum se ai ham-safiiro.n
Khabar kal kii hamako sunaataa rahegaa
[qafas=cage; ham-safiiro.n=co-inhabitants]
Khafaa ho ki ai "Dard" mar to chalaa tuu
kahaa.N tak Gam apanaa chhupaataa rahegaa
