hum pe wo mehrban kuchh kam hai
is liye khush-bayan kuchh kam hai

mit gaya hun par us ki nazron mein
ab bhi ye imtihan kuchh kam hai

shahr mein yun zamin to kafi hai
nilgun aasman kuchh kam hai

gham ke saman kuchh ziyaada hain
is mutabiq makan kuchh kam hai

sar chhupaun to panw jalte hain
mujh pe ye saeban kuchh kam hai

zindagi aur de azab mujhe
mujh pe aaed lagan kuchh kam hai

fasl-e-barud hai pahadon par
is baras zafran kuchh kam hai
