jawan jab se gul-o-gulshan hua hai
jise dekho wahi dushman hua hai

karen na shairi to kya karen hum
hamein hasil yahi ek fan hua hai

mile hain yar hum ko sanp jaise
tabhi to ped ye chandan hua hai

jalae hain musalsal khwab apne
mera ghar yun nahin raushan hua hai

asar kuchh to hai angrezon ka sahab
yunhi thodi ye suraj san hua hai

rakha hai wazn hum ne filon par
tabhi to kaam sab fauran hua hai
