chashm-e-wahshat ye teri girya-o-zari kam hai
gham ziyaada hai magar sina-figari kam hai

itna chillaen ki qatil ki ragen phat jaen
rone walo abhi aawaz hamari kam hai

is liye badhti chali jati hai lashon ki qatar
meri fursat ke liye zakhm-shumari kam hai

chikhte hain badan-e-tifl se zakhmon ke nishan
itni shamshiron mein shamshir tumhaari kam hai

kyon nahin hota adu par mere hamlon ka asar
hath halka hai ki talwar ye bhaari kam hai

chappe chappe pe hai kuchli hui kaliyon ka lahu
is gulistan ke liye baad-e-bahaari kam hai

mere gham-khane ka mausam hai badalne wala
hai rajaz-khwani fuzun nauha-nigari kam hai

mere chehre se na andaza lagana ki ye umr
mujh pe biti hai bahut main ne guzari kam hai

rakhsh-e-jaan mujh ko qayamat ka safar hai darpesh
is masafat ko faqat ek sawari kam hai

qafila kuch ko tayyar hai ghar ki jaanib
sab hain maujud magar ek amari kam hai
