riyazaton ki tapish mein rah kar pighal raha hun
ye baat sach hai main dhire dhire badal raha hun

alamat-e-khak-zadgi ho mazid raushan
bas is liye khak apne chehre pe mal raha hun

utar kar qarz zindagani ka rafta rafta
nafas ke wahshat-kade se bahar nikal raha hun

ana-paraston ke beach apni ana ke sar ko
hun munkasir is liye musalsal kuchal raha hun

duaen man ki qadam qadam saeban bani hain
'nadim' gir gir ke is liye main sambhal raha hun
