ye qanaat hai ki har haal mein khush rahte hain
dal milti hai to hum dal mein khush rahte hain

ishq se hum ko rihai nahin achchhi lagti
hum wo panchhi hain ki jo jal mein khush rahte hain

mera maula tere hathon ko salamat rakkhe
mere aansu tere rumal mein khush rahte hain

waqt guzra to judai bhi judai na rahi
hum yahan aur wo bhopal mein khush rahte hain

har baras apne bichhad jate hain 'nazim'-ashraf
log be-kar nae sal mein khush rahte hain
