mera dil saf hai har shakhs se darpan ki tarah
main to dushman se bhi milta nahin dushman ki tarah

be-tahasha jo teri yaad kabhi aai hai
ashk aankhon se barasne lage sawan ki tarah

mere honton ke tabassum pe na jao yaro
zindagi hai meri jalte hue indhan ki tarah

barq rah rah ke chamakti hai chamakne dije
hum banaenge nasheman ko nasheman ki tarah

nang-e-kirdar mein bazm-e-bashariyyat ke liye
hath phailaen jo phaile hue daman ki tarah

maslahat ka ye taqaza hai ki bach kar rahiye
aaj ka daur hai biphri hui nagan ki tarah

roz khilte hain nae phul mere daman mein
dur gulshan se mahakte hue gulshan ki tarah

waqt ki baat hai hum takht-nashinan-e-jahan
dar-ba-dar phirte hain muhtaj-e-nasheman ki tarah

shukr sad-shukr zamane ki nigahon mein 'kamal'
mera daman nahin maske hue daman ki tarah
