hum alag si ek khushbu jaante hain
hain barahman aur urdu jaante hain

kaam chup rah ke kiya karte hain lekin
raat ke sab raaz jugnu jaante hain

khamushi se aa gire daman pe aksar
dard ki shiddat ko aansu jaante hain

kyon mahakta hai chaman aamad se teri
phul bhi kya teri khushbu jaante hain

arziyan kab rokna hai kab badhana
ye hunar daftar ke babu jaante hain

mushkilon mein muskura ke jine wale
phir yaqinan koi jadu jaante hain
