apni nazar mein hech hai sare jahan ki sair
dil khush na ho to kis ka tamasha kahan ki sair

ab tak to dekhte rahe joban bahaar ka
aainda hum karenge tumhaari khizan ki sair

duniya ke dekhne ke liye aankh chahiye
jannat ki sair se hai siwa us makan ki sair

kuchh jhumte hain nashshe mein kuchh hain gire pade
kuchh aur hi hai mahfil-e-pir-e-mughan ki sair

kyon dekhne lage meri chashm-e-pur-ab ko
dariya pe aap kijiye aab-e-rawan ki sair

kyon aadmi ko aalam-e-baala ki ho hawas
badh kar nahin zamin se kuchh aasman ki sair

dilli mein phul walon ki hai ek sair 'dagh'
balde mein hum ne dekh li sare jahan ki sair
