bahut qimti hain ye pairon ke chhaale
andheron mein hain ye sarapa ujale

chamakne ki khatir hai betab har shai
koi raushni in andheron pe dale

tabiat se qatil hain par lag rahe hain
bahut sidhe-sade bade bhole-bhaale

jafa karne wale jafa kar rahe hain
wafa kar rahe hain wafa karne wale

in aankhon ke dipak bujhe ja rahe hain
khuda ke liye rukh se parda utha le

pari-rukh hain har-su teri anjuman mein
kahan tak koi apne dil ko sanbhaale

jinhen sun ke gulshan mein hai shadmani
ye naghme hain 'amrit' ke bulbul ke nale
