ek dard ka anmol-ratan sath hai mere
khush hun ki koi jine ka fan sath hai mere

sadiyon se hai aawargi-e-shauq safar mein
milon ki masafat ki thakan sath hai mere

udti nahin kyon jaane pasine ki ye shabnam
suraj ki to ek ek kiran sath hai mere

har shishe mein chehra nazar aata nahin yaro
ye sach hai ki ek aaina-tan sath hai mere

banti hui surat bhi bigad jae hai 'anjum'
lahje ka wo be-sakhta-pan sath hai mere
