mujhe pattharon se badh kar teri ek kali ne mara
mujhe dushmanon se badh kar teri dosti ne mara

gham-e-rozgar sah kar main to ji raha tha phir bhi
mere na-tawan dil ko teri aashiqi ne mara

na gila karun na shikwa na zamane ka na tera
mujhe meri bad-nasibi meri bebasi ne mara

na hi tir-e-nim-kash ne na hi bijliyon ne mara
mere na-tawan dil ko teri sadgi ne mara

mere zakhm ke jharoke tere dard se hain raushan
isi darja la-dawa ki mujhe raushni ne mara

mujhe maut ka nahin gham wo to aaegi yaqinan
jise hum gale lagae usi zindagi ne mara
