kis ujale ka nishan hain hum log
kin andheron mein rawan hain hum log

nur-e-khurshid ko ilzam na do
subh ka khwab-e-giran hain hum log

jaise bhatka hua rahi ho koi
yunhi har su nigaran hain hum log

kabhi aawargi-e-nihkat-e-gul
kabhi zanjir-e-giran hain hum log

dur tak dasht-e-junun hai 'jawed'
aabla-pa guzaran hain hum log
