jis ke hathon mein hua tha sang-rezon ka shikar
aaj wo bhi ho gaya apne gunahon ka shikar

aur kitne din meri nazron ko tum doge fareb
aur kitne din rahunga main tilismon ka shikar

bad-guman jis se raha karti thi suraj ki kiran
ho gaya wo ped bhi kali ghataon ka shikar

chal pade hain log mujh ko le ke suli ki taraf
aakhirash main ho gaya apne usulon ka shikar

apni shohrat ka mujhe us waqt andaza hua
shakhsiyat meri hui jab nukta-chini ka shikar

sar kati lashen milengi tum ko har ek mod par
raushni ho jaegi jis dam andheron ka shikar

'badr' tera shukriya ki tu bhi mere sath hai
main akela hi nahin jhuti umidon ka shikar
