har qadam par nai diwar uthane wale
bade aae mujhe tahzib sikhane wale

tu hi har rind ka qibla ho zaruri to nahin
shahr mein kam nahin aankhon se pilane wale

koi is khwab ki tabir bata sakta hai
roz aate hain mujhe khwab darane wale

jis ko dekho hai wahi paikar-e-alam yahan
kho gae jaane kahan hansne hansane wale

waqt ke aage sipar dale hue kaun hain ye
hum to the waqt ki buniyaad hilane wale

sat pardon mein tujhe dhundh hi lenge 'rakhshan'
chain se rahne kahan denge zamane wale
