ji mein jab himmat na ho ji se guzar jaana bhala
har ghadi mar-mar ke jine se to mar jaana bhala

sabr ban aae na jis se zahmat-e-tadbir par
is faromaya jasarat se to dar jaana bhala

husn-e-khu se un ke dil mein rah paida kijiye
un ke dar par sar patakne se to ghar jaana bhala

yaad hain hum ko kiye hum ne jo wade nafs se
aise wade kar ke wadon se mukar jaana bhala

dard insan ka na ho dil mein to dil khun kijiye
sar jhuke insan ke aage is se sar jaana bhala

shar hi kije shar se bhi phute hain chashme khair ke
kuchh na karne se yahan kuchh kaam kar jaana bhala

shayad ai 'mohsin' hamari hadd-e-jaulan hai yahi
aur kuchh badhne ki koshish se thahar jaana bhala
