khauf-e-jaan aas-pas rahta hai
dil yun hi kab udas rahta hai

dekh kar ab lahu ki arzani
har koi bad-hawas rahta hai

sare insan bichhad gae to kya
mera gham mere pas rahta hai

jab se dil ko diye hain us ne zakhm
karb-o-gham aas-pas rahta hai

aadmi ja basega suraj par
aisa bhi kya qayas rahta hai

khauf-e-dariya use nahin hota
jo samundar-shanas rahta hai
