gham kam hain zindagi mein zara aur paliye
jo masale nahin hain unhen bhi uchhaaliye

ek laghzish-e-qadam bhi kabhi sar uda gai
dastar chhod dijiye khud ko sanbaaliye

bas hath tera hath mein aa ne ki der thi
sab mehr-o-mah-o-arz-o-sama hum ne pa liye

rahi ye sang-e-mil nahin sang-e-rah hain
but bas gae hain kaba-e-dil mein nikaliye

ab ke hamein ishaara-e-anjum na tha koi
khinche zamin ne hath to langar utha liye

sarsabz dasht khauf se khashak ho gaya
hain mishalen huzur mein arman nikaliye
