donon hathon mein uthae hue bhaari patthar
marne aae hain isa ko hawari patthar

main ne jo tere tasawwur mein tarashe the kabhi
le gae wo bhi mere ghar se pujari patthar

aadmi aaj kahin jae to kyunkar jae
sar pe sahra to zamin sari ki sari patthar

sab se pahle mere bhai ne hi phenka mujh par
pahla patthar hi mujhe ho gaya kari patthar

rahm ai gardish-e-dauran ye tamasha kya hai
phul se shanon pe karte hain sawari patthar

jab koi ghuncha khila koi kali chatki hai
le ke pahunchi hai wahin baad-e-bahaari patthar

dil hai is aahu-e-darmanda-o-bekas ki tarah
marte hain jise mil mil ke shikari patthar

sina-e-sang se dariya nahin bahte dekhe
kaun kahta hai ki hain dard se aari patthar

naz har but ke utha pae na 'jafar-tahir'
chum kar chhod diye hum ne ye bhaari patthar
