duniya tanz kare to aah-o-zari kya
hum donon ko milne mein dushwari kya

shadabi chehron par hoti hai tahrir
zinda dilon par chhati hai be-zari kya

firqa-wari amn shahr ka chhinegi
aag na jo bhadkae wo chingari kya

aankhen phoden ya phir jaan hi de den hum
himmat tuti ishq ki bazi haari kiya

shahr mein jao rizq milega koshish se
ghar mein baithe mitti hai bekari kya

waqt bura ho to tadbiren la-hasil
kaam aaegi aise mein hushyari kya

hum jaison se bin matlab kab milte hain
dhan walon se nibhti bhi hai yari kya
