hai kitni khud-gharaz makkar duniya hum ne dekha hai
khud apni hi tabahi ka tamasha hum ne dekha hai

hamare ghar jale hain khud hamare hi charaghon se
khuli aankhon se apnon ka irada hum ne dekha hai

ye sajda-rez tak hoti hai duniya jabr ke aage
kahin dar se baja lati hai mujra hum ne dekha hai

qayamat-khez tufanon mein barsati hawaon mein
ubharte dubte dil ka jazira hum ne dekha hai

tasalli dene wale khud maza lete hain hans hans kar
pas-e-ehsan-o-hamdardi dikhawa hum ne dekha hai

saf-e-matam ki tayyari kahin shahnaiyan sargarm
dikhati hai ye duniya rang kya kya hum ne dekha hai

hua kya is se hasil mai-kade walo bata dena
jo girne aur sambhalne ka tamasha hum ne dekha hai

khulus-e-dil se sari sarhaden mil jati hain 'najmi'
jahan milte hain sab raste wo rasta hum ne dekha hai
