hain meri parwaz ke tewar nae
sath mere dekhiye manzar nae

ek purane mai-kade mein tishnagi
dhundti hai saqi-o-saghar nae

bachpane ka ghar na bhulega kabhi
chahe jitne aap ke hon ghar nae

kijiye har ilm se aarasta
bachchiyon ke hain yahi zewar nae

ek nae footpath par mazdur tha
muflisi ne jab diye bistar nae

ab zara tabir bhi badle 'farogh'
dekhta hun khwab to aksar nae
