khun-girafta ho to khanjar ka badan dukhta hai
panja-e-khair mein hi shar ka badan dukhta hai

paikar-e-nim-shikasta hun karo tesha-zani
barish-e-gul se ye patthar ka badan dukhta hai

kaun hai tujh sa jo bante meri din bhar ki thakan
muzmahil raat hai bistar ka badan dukhta hai

mustaqil shorish-e-tufan se ragen tutti hain
zabt-e-paiham se samundar ka badan dukhta hai

zakhm-khurda dar o diwar ki haalat hai ajab
sirf aahat se mere ghar ka badan dukhta hai

qimat-e-jaan ki tawaqqo kaf-e-qatil se kahan
khun-baha ye hai ki khanjar ka badan dukhta hai

dard maujon ki rifaqat ka bada hai shayad
qurb-e-sahil se shanawar ka badan dukhta hai
