apne sae ko bhi asir bana
bahte pani pe ek lakir bana

sirf khairaat harf-o-saut ki de
shahr-e-fan ka mujhe amir bana

shokh titli hai gar hadaf pe tere
gul ke reshon se ek tir bana

mujh ko kashkol ke baghair hi de
ek gadagar nahin faqir bana

ret par rah dhund mat 'sabir'
aa falak par nai lakir bana
