ek patthar ki dast-e-yar mein hai
phul banne ke intizar mein hai

apni nakaamiyon pe aakhir-e-kar
muskurana to ikhtiyar mein hai

hum sitaron ki tarah dub gae
din qayamat ke intizar mein hai

apni taswir khinchta hun main
aur aaina intizar mein hai

kuchh sitare hain aur hum hain 'jamil'
raushni jin se rahguzar mein hai
