mujhe hoti hai aziyyat badi tayyari mein
us ke kapde hain abhi tak meri almari mein

haal aisa hai meri jaan bichhad kar tujh se
jaise achchha nahin lagta koi bimari mein

maut hi un ko jagae to jagae sahib
log mashghul hain khwabon ki kharidari mein

mujhe mara hai meri sari tamannaon ne
rahm-dil koi nahin lashkar-e-tatari mein

log khush-bash hain kitne nai colony ke
aur parinde hain darakhton ki aza-dari mein

barish-e-dard-e-judai kabhi rukti hi nahin
raat din rahta hun main sher ki sarshaari mein

main ne kahna hai bas itna hi mere dost ki dost
bante aasani mein hain khulte hain dushwari mein

malik-e-tukhm-e-tamanna ne chhupa rakkha tha
meri tamir ka rasta meri mismari mein

mere ek dost ne jab meri jaden kati thin
kahin masruf tha us din main shajar-kari mein
