is liye shahr se logon ne nikala mujh ko
mil gaya tha mera ek jaanne wala mujh ko

shukr allah ka main sabit-o-salim nikla
aazmaish mein to haalat ne dala mujh ko

in dinon tez bahut charche hain mahrumon ke
kuchh nazar aata hai is dal mein kala mujh ko

darj kar leta hun har din ke bahane tere
kis tarah kaun si tarikh mein tala mujh ko

har taraf mujh se ta'alluq ka dhindhora pita
tum ne shohrat ke liye apni uchhaala mujh ko

har guzarta hua din 'umr ghata deta hai
is haqiqat ne kahan fikr mein dala mujh ko

is qadar sath andheron ne diya 'nazr' mera
katne daudta hai din ka ujala mujh ko
