pade hain zakhm-khurda mehrbani mangne wale
bahut nadim hain us se zindagani mangne wale

yahan to sab ki khwahish ek si hai rotiyan, sikke
mere yug mein nahin khwab-e-jawani mangne wale

koi takhliq ho khun-e-jigar se janm leti hai
kahani likh nahin sakte kahani mangne wale

lagaen jo saron ki baziyan ye kaam un ka hai
imamat kya karenge jhuk ke pani mangne wale
