khud apne panw ke niche bhanwar banata hun
main ek sarae ko har roz ghar banata hun

ye koi dukh hai gila hai ya koi pachhtawa
main kaghazon pe jo aksar shajar banata hun

mere makan mein ab dhup bhi nahin aati
main kis umid se aakhir ye dar banata hun

nigal hi jae kabhi to siyah raat mujhe
main ek charagh bujha kar ye dar banata hun

main jaanta hun ki mitti ke hain parind ke pankh
bana ke kuchh nahin hasil magar banata hun
