kuchh gham nahin ki ghar ki ye angnai kam hui
diwar khinchne se shanasai kam hui

tujh se bichhad ke aaj bhi zinda to hain magar
mahsus har qadam pe tawanai kam hui

har manzar-e-hayat pe be-chehragi si hai
tarikiyan badhi hain ki binai kam hui

shanon pe aasman samundar hai panw mein
unchaiyan ghati hain ki gahrai kam hui

hum doston ki tarah rahe sath umr bhar
ye bhi nahin ki marka-arai kam hui

majburiyon ne maslahat-andesh kar diya
ye kyon kahen ki hausla-afzai kam hui

tanhaiyon mein sab the mere mo'tarif magar
mahfil mein aa gaya to pazirai kam hui
