chalega kaun mere sath ham-safar ki tarah
kisi ki rah nahin meri rahguzar ki tarah

mere yaqin ka is mein qusur hi kya hai
fareb-saz mile mujh ko mo'atabar ki tarah

na imtiyaz raha kam-nazar zamane ko
dikhai dete hain sab aib bhi hunar ki tarah

wo koi shish-mahal ho ki qasr-e-shahi ho
gharib ko na milega sukun ghar ki tarah

nahin khulus ka mear shahr mein tere
yahan zamir ka sauda hai mal-o-zar ki tarah

mile zarur tere aastan ko sar lakhon
magar tadap na kisi mein hai mere sar ki tarah

chamakte kanch ke tukde fareb dete hain
'nazar' ke samne aate hain wo guhar ki tarah
