dard ashkon mein dhal bhi sakta hai
dil ka patthar pighal bhi sakta hai

tum se mil kar ab aa gaya hai yaqin
koi mujh ko badal bhi sakta hai

dar-e-hakim pe soch kar de sada
kasa-e-sar uchhal bhi sakta hai

muntazir hun ye jaante hue bhi
rasta wo badal bhi sakta hai

le main hazir hun chal utha khanjar
tera arman nikal bhi sakta hai

tu jo chahe to kaenat ka gham
mere saghar mein dhal bhi sakta hai

waqt badla to na-tawan dushman
mung chhati pe dal bhi sakta hai

kyon hai maghrur us bulandi par
tu jahan se phisal bhi sakta hai

shaeri sahl to nahin 'ambar'
dam tumhaara nikal bhi sakta hai
