chal tu jita man liya na aa tu mujh ko haara dekh
main qismat wale ko dekhun tu qismat ka mara dekh

tufan sar par mandlae hai kitni dur kinara dekh
main kashti ki haalat dekhun tu dariya ka dhaara dekh

sar par aag ugalta suraj panw tale angara dekh
apni duniya pith pe lade nikla ek banjara dekh

majburi mein hansta joker pyasa hathi bhuke sher
ab circus mein baith ja pyare khel tamasha sara dekh

band gharon mein baith ke mat kar tu zulf-o-rukhsar ki baat
khanjar meri gardan par hai khidki khol nazara dekh

bhul gae kya qasmen wade sath mein hum ko chalna tha
rah badalni hai kya tujh ko ja pahle kaffara dekh

masnad par kyon dekh raha hai ghaur se apne hathon ko
kya daman bhi dekh liya hai phir se dekh dobara dekh

teri saf mein kaun hai apna kaun munafiq dekh to le
khanak rahi talwar ka hoga lahja ek ishaara dekh

rishte-nate zakhmi ho gae is diwar ke sae mein
sadiyon ke pushtaini ghar mein aangan ka batwara dekh

itni dur falak ki jaanib gardan mod ke takna kya
ghar ke ek diye mein raushan suraj chand sitara dekh
