Ummid TuTi Hui Hai Meri Jo Dil Mera Tha Wo Mar Chuka Hai
ummid TuTi hui hai meri jo dil mera tha wo mar chuka hai
jo zindagani ko talKH kar de wo waqt mujh par guzar chuka hai
agarche sine mein sans bhi hai nahin tabiat mein jaan baqi
ajal ko hai der ek nazar ki falak to kaam apna kar chuka hai
gharib-KHane ki ye udasi ye na-durusti nahin qadimi
chahal pahal bhi kabhi yahan thi kabhi ye ghar bhi sanwar chuka hai
ye sina jis mein ye dagh mein ab masarraton ka kabhi tha maKHzan
wo dil jo arman se bhara tha KHushi se us mein Thahar chuka hai
gharib akbar ke gard kyun mein KHayal waiz se koi kah de
use Daraate ho maut se kya wo zindagi hi se Dar chuka hai
Akbar Allahabadi
