gardish-e-zamana se kab najat pate hain
bijliyon ki zad pe jo aashiyan banate hain

zahiri nawazish ko dosti nahin kahte
dil agar nahin milta hath kyon milate hain

dekhna hai tum kab tak hum se bair rakkhoge
har qadam pe chahat ke hum diye jalate hain

hum ne jo zamane ka kal sabaq padhaya tha
wo usul ab hum ko aaina dikhate hain

zindagi haqiqat mein jo samajh ke jite hain
wo khushi mein rote hain gham mein muskuraate hain

hum se khush nahin honge maslahat ke saudagar
un ke aib hum aksar raushni mein late hain

raat ke andhere mein dub jate hain lekin
subh hote hi 'sabir' sae sar uthate hain
