jada-e-rasti hi kafi hai
mujh ko ye raushni hi kafi hai

is jahan mein guzarne ke liye
mukhtasar zindagi hi kafi hai

tujh ko farzangi mubarak ho
mujh ko diwangi hi kafi hai

kya zarurat hai dushmanon ki mujhe
aap ki dosti hi kafi hai

kya karunga main sim-o-zar le kar
daulat-e-be-khudi hi kafi hai

dil ke aangan mein raushni ke liye
fikr ki tazgi hi kafi hai

is chaman mein khizan-nasibon ko
ek kali adh-khili hi kafi hai

lashkar-e-gham se jitne ke liye
chand-roza khushi hi kafi hai

aarzu ke nihaal ko 'shahid'
aansuon ki nami hi kafi hai
