khwabon se yun to roz bahalte rahe hain hum
kitni haqiqaton ko badalte rahe hain hum

apne ghubar mein bhi hai wo zauq-e-sar-kashi
pamal hauke arsh pe chalte rahe hain hum

sau sau tarah se tujh ko sanwara hai husn-e-dost
sau sau tarah se rang badalte rahe hain hum

har dasht-o-dar mein phul khilane ke waste
aksar to nok-e-khar pe chalte rahe hain hum

aain-e-pasdari-e-sahra na chhut saka
waz'-e-junun agarche badalte rahe hain hum

saqi na multafit ho to pina haram hai
pyase bhi mai-kade se nikalte rahe hain hum

koi khalil jis ko na gulzar kar saka
tere liye is aag pe chalte rahe hain hum

kya jaane kab wo subh-e-bahaaran ho jalwa-gar
daur-e-khizan mein jis se bahalte rahe hain hum

pursan-e-haal kab hui wo chashm-e-be-niyaz
jab bhi gire hain khud hi sambhalte rahe hain hum

sahil ki ishraton ko khabar bhi na ho saki
tufan ban ke lakh machalte rahe hain hum

takhil-e-lala-kar ye kahti hai ai 'surur'
koi zamin ho phulte-phalte rahe hain hum
