dil ki tarah hi ab meri duniya kharab hai
so apna haal in dinon achchha kharab hai

aansu bahe to yun hua binai badh gai
phir saf saf dikh gaya kya kya kharab hai

pahle-pahal to main tera yak-tarfa ishq tha
ab mera haal tujh se ziyaada kharab hai

duniya se tang shakhs ko achchhi hai khud-kushi
gharqab hote shakhs ko tinka kharab hai

to ishq se mitaenge duniya ki nafraten
'mishra' ji aap thik hain matha kharab hai
