hum tumhaare kuche ki rasm ko nibhaenge
phul phul aae the zakhm zakhm jaenge

tum hasin phulon ko shakh shakh se chun lo
zard zard patton ko hum samet laenge

dhup ke musafir hain dhup dhup chalne do
hai shajar shajar nanga sar kahan chhupaenge

fard fard rahne se qafile nahin bante
fard fard mil hi kar qafile banaenge

kuchh pata nahin chalta raat kitni baqi hai
kab talak charaghon mein khun-e-dil jalaenge

hum buland-himmat hain tegh se nahin darte
qatilon ki mahfil mein sar utha ke jaenge

tah-ba-tah zamane ki gard jam gai 'hami'
aaina hua dhundla saf kar na paenge
