numu ke irfan se be-khabar hun
ki lala-e-dasht-e-be-shajar hun

ye zard phulon ke kunj dekho
yahan bhi aao ki main idhar hun

wo phul hai shakh par rahega
main us ki khushbu hun dar-ba-dar hun

wo zindagi ki saza ka lamha
us ek lamhe ka main samar hun

mujhe uthane ka haq hai kis ko
ki apni turbat pe nauhagar hun

wo kaj-kulahon ki bastiyan hain
wahan na le chal main nange sar hun
