asir-e-khak bhi hun khak se riha bhi hun main
main ji raha hun to dekho mara pada bhi hun main

main ek lamha-e-hazir bila-siyaq-o-sabaq
aur apne lamha-e-hazir ka hafiza bhi hun main

main ek fard-e-saf-ara maashre ke khilaf
aur ek fard mein pura muashra bhi hun main

nikal bhi aaya hun us kucha-e-taghaful se
aur us ke dar pe bahut sa pada hua bhi hun main

main apni khak mein lat-path pada hua hun abhi
magar na bhul ki parwarda-e-hawa bhi hun main

kisi bhi lafz ke jaisa nahin hai lafz mera
idhar-udhar se bahut sa kaha-suna bhi hun main

agarche thik se banda bhi main nahin 'ehsas'
magar kabhi kabhi ek lamha-e-khuda bhi hun main
