jo ho sake to aap bhi kuchh kar dikhaiye
umr-e-aziz apni na yun hi ganwaiye

din ko thithurti dhup mein tangen pasariye
raaton ko jag jag ke mahfil sajaiye

chae ke ek cup ka yahi hai muawza
yaron ko ahd-e-rafta ke qisse sunaiye

nam-o-numud ki ho agar aap ko hawas
jaise bhi ho kisi tarah bas chhupte jaiye

wo ajnabi bhi aashna ban jaega 'matin'
us ki gali ke roz hi chakkar lagaiye
