itna mohtat ki jumbish nahin karne dega
umr-bhar ek guzarish nahin karne dega

us se ummid ye karte ho ki suraj ka tawaf
wo to mehwar pe bhi gardish nahin karne dega

dil hi chahega to zanjir ke tukde honge
us se pahle koi koshish nahin karne dega

par karne ke liye aaj bhi dariya ka bahao
aisa rakkhega ki khwahish nahin karne dega

ab bhi sine mein kahan bagh utarne wala
panw de jaega laghzish nahin karne dega
