itni qurbat bhi nahin thik hai ab yar ke sath
zakhm kha jaoge kheloge jo talwar ke sath

ek aahat bhi mere ghar se ubharti hai agar
log kan apne laga lete hain diwar ke sath

panw sakit hain magar ghum rahi hai duniya
zindagi thahri hui lagti hai raftar ke sath

ek jalta hua aansu meri aankhon se gira
bediyan tut gain zulm ki jhankar ke sath

kal bhi anmol tha main aaj bhi anmol hun main
ghatti badhti nahin qimat meri bazar ke sath

kaj-kulahi pe na maghrur hua kar itna
sar utar aate hain shahon ke bhi dastar ke sath

kaun sa jurm khuda jaane hua hai sabit
mashware karta hai munsif jo gunahgar ke sath

shahr bhar ko main mayassar hun siwae us ke
jis ki diwar lagi hai meri diwar ke sath
