farar khud se mujhe dam-ba-dam jahan ki tarah
muhit mujh pe meri zat aasman ki tarah

nigar-khana-e-dil mein hunut kar le mujhe
ki reg-e-waqt pe hun main tere nishan ki tarah

main apne khol mein mahbus misl-e-kirm-o-harir
main apni qabr banata raha makan ki tarah

na tum se dard ka shikwa na tum se shukr-e-karam
ki khair-o-shar se ho tum mawara zaman ki tarah

qadam qadam wo mere sath aur main tanha
mile hain dost mere mujh se aasman ki tarah

agar gila hai to hai khud se bewafai ka
ki lahza lahza digar-gun hun main jahan ki tarah

mere zamir mein aasuda waqt ke tufan
wasia zarf mera bahr-e-be-karan ki tarah
