koi kis tarah tum se sar-bar ho
sakht be-rahm ho sitamgar ho

uth gaya hum se go mukaddar ho
khush rahe wo jahan ho jidhar ho

tewri chadh rahi hai ye bhaun par
kya hai kyun kis liye mukaddar ho

kya shitabi hi aise jaega
khushk to ho araq abhi tar ho

jaan khai hai naseho ne meri
samne in ke to tuk aa kar ho

lije hazir hai chiz kya hai dil
ghussa is waste jo mujh par ho

yaad mein us ki ghar se nikla hun
sakht be-ikhtiyar-o-muztar ho

us se 'bedar' baat to malum
dekhna bhi kahin mayassar ho
