gahre suron mein arz-e-nawa-e-hayat kar
sine pe ek dard ki sil rakh ke baat kar

ye duriyon ka sail-e-rawan barg-e-nama bhej
ye faslon ke band-e-giran koi baat kar

tera dayar raat meri bansuri ki lai
is khwab-e-dil-nashin ko meri kaenat kar

mere ghamon ko apne khayalon mein bar de
in uljhanon ko silsila-e-waqiat kar

aa ek din mere dil-e-viran mein baith kar
is dasht ke sukut-e-sukhan-ju se baat kar

'amjad' nashat-e-zist isi kashmakash mein hai
marne ka qasd jine ka azm ek sat kar
