aahon mein sharar le kar jaun to kahan jaun
jazbon ka bhanwar le kar jaun to kahan jaun

har samt khudaon ke aaine hain istada
gustakh-nazar le kar jaun to kahan jaun

main zahr-e-halahal ka qail to nahin lekin
nasur-e-jigar le kar jaun to kahan jaun

dushman hai hua jaani barish bhi hai tezabi
jalta hua ghar le kar jaun to kahan jaun

sunta hun ki sajde mein hai qurb-e-khudawandi
firaun ka sar le kar jaun to kahan jaun

sayyaad ke kuche se har rah guzarti hai
ab izn-e-safar le kar jaun to kahan jaun

hassas zamane mein aamal ki waqat hai
lafzon ka hunar le kar jaun to kahan jaun
