kitne jug bit gae phir bhi na bhula jae main jahan jaun mere sath wo chehra jae raat ab laut chali nind se jaga jae apne khoe hue suraj ko pukara jae ye damakte hue rukhsar chamakti aankhen zindagi kar chuke ab dub ke dekha jae ab ke tufan mein ho jae na reza reza jism ki tutti diwar ko thama jae mohtasib shahr mein mizan liye phirte hain hum gunahgar hain is shahr se bhaga jae apne hi dil mein kabhi jhank ke dekho mujh ko main koi raaz nahin hun jise samjha jae le ke shishe mein chalo aatish-e-sayyal 'shamim' qazi-e-shahr ke iman ko parkha jae
