agar kabhi tere aazar se nikalta hun
to apne daera-e-kar se nikalta hun

hawa-e-taza hun rukna nahin kahin bhi mujhe
gharon mein ghusta hun ashjar se nikalta hun

kabhi hai us ke mazafat mein numud meri
kabhi main apne hi aasar se nikalta hun

main ghar mein jab nahin hota to ghas ki surat
daricha o dar-o-diwar se nikalta hun

isi kinara-e-dariya-e-zat par har-dam
ghurub hota hun us par se nikalta hun

widaa karti hai rozana zindagi mujh ko
main roz maut ke manjdhaar se nikalta hun

ruka hua koi sailab hun tabiat ka
hamesha tundi-e-raftar se nikalta hun

ise bhi kuchh meri himmat hi jaaniye jo kabhi
khayal-o-khwab ke ambar se nikalta hun

libas bechta hun ja ke pahle apna 'zafar'
to kuchh kharid ke bazar se nikalta hun
