apni kami se puchh na us ki kami se puchh
ismat ka bhaw jism ki bechaargi se puchh

ghaaron mein rahne walon ki shaistagi ka qad
sadkon pe raqs karti hui aagahi se puchh

mujh mein ye intishaar ye nafrat hai kis liye
guzre hue samaj ki diwangi se puchh

dali se chhut jaane ka anjam kya hua
barg-e-khizan-rasida ki aawargi se puchh

ashkon mein iltijaon mein taqat nahin hai kyun
zehnon pe raj karti hui be-hisi se puchh

khulne ke intizar mein jo zard ho gai
rang-e-suluk baad-e-saba us kali se puchh

bandon ke silsile mein bahut tu ne kah liya
allah apne bare mein kuchh aadmi se puchh
