aakhirash dur ho hi jate hain
mere dil ko jo log bhate hain

laut kar mai-kade se diwane
teri aankhon mein dub jate hain

hum se wada bhi ek nahin tuta
log to tare tod late hain

mujh se kamzor par sitam kar ke
log qismat ko aazmate hain

mere hisse mein kuchh nahin 'sohil'
mere hisse ka log khate hain

roz dariya mein dal kar machis
apne ghar ko miyan bachate hain

hum bhi raaton ko jag kar 'sohil'
'mir' ke sher gungunate hain
