apna daman dekh kar ghabra gae
khun ke chhinte kahan tak aa gae

bhul thi apni kisi qatil ko hum
dewta samjhe the dhoka kha gae

har-qadam par sath hain ruswaiyan
hum to apne aap se sharma gae

hum chale the un ke aansu ponchhne
apni aankhon mein bhi aansu aa gae

sath un ke meri duniya bhi gai
aah wo duniya se meri kya gae

'naqsh' koi hum bhi jaen chhod kar
jaise 'mir'-o-'ghaalib'-o-'sauda' gae
