makan-bhar hum ko virani bahut hai
magar ye dil ki sailani bahut hai

hamare panw ulte hain so hum ko
palat jaane mein aasani bahut hai

sitare chor aankhon se na dekhen
zamin par meri nigarani bahut hai

abhi sukhi nahin mitti ki aankhen
abhi dariyaon mein pani bahut hai

ajab si shart hai ye zindagi bhi
jo manwai hai kam mani bahut hai

zarurat hi nahin dushman ki 'tabish'
mujhe meri tan-asani bahut hai
