jab koi zakhm ubharta hai kinaron jaisa
dil tadapta hai mera mauj ke dhaaron jaisa

jab koi aks chamakta hai sitaron jaisa
mera qad bhi nazar aata hai minaron jaisa

tere hi dar pe mujhe aa ke sukun milta hai
ek sahaara bhi nahin tere sahaaron jaisa

aaj bhi sab ke dilon pe hai hukumat jis ki
wo chatai pe bhi lagta hai dularon jaisa

mere hi dam se mahakta hai gulistan phir bhi
sab ki aankhon mein khatakta hun main kharon jaisa

ab to sukhe hue patte hi nazar aate hain
mere aangan mein bahut kuchh tha bahaaron jaisa

aaina kaun dikhaega mujhe ai 'dildar'
mere dushman ka bhi bartaw hai yaron jaisa
