kahan se bunte nae roz tane-bane hum
naya naya ye zamana hai aur purane hum

hamari aankhon pe ghalba hai nind ka ab bhi
lage hue hain kai roz se thikane hum

sabhi khade the wahan apni dastan liye
jahan jahan gae qissa koi sunane hum

chadha hua hai abhi hum pe hijraton ka nasha
palat ke aaenge ek din kisi bahane hum

hawa ke dar se jo apne paron mein simte hain
unhin parindon ko aae hain ab udane hum

bahut dinon se to apne hisar mein gum hai
tujhe bhi aaenge is qaid se chhudane hum

samajh mein kuchh nahin aata ki kya hua 'naushad'
lage hain in dinon baaten bahut banane hum
