aadmi ki hayat mutthi bhar
yani kul kaenat mutthi bhar

hath bhar ka hai din bichhadne ka
aur milne ki raat mutthi bhar

kya karoge samet kar duniya
hai jo duniya ka sath mutthi bhar

kar gaya kisht-e-arzu shadab
aap ka iltifat mutthi bhar

aur milna bhi kya sarabon se
ret aaegi hath mutthi bhar

hausla yun na haarte 'ejaz'
ho gai thi jo mat mutthi bhar
