phir hum ko ehtiyat se chalna bhi aa gaya
thokar lagi gire to sambhalna bhi aa gaya

sahme hue hain kachche makanon ke baam-o-dar
ab ganw ki nadi ko ubalna bhi aa gaya

angdai li chaman mein jo fasl-e-bahaar ne
sukhe shajar ko phulna-phalna bhi aa gaya

dala gaya jo tel to lau tez ho gai
bujhte hue charagh ko jalna bhi aa gaya

ghar laute hum safar se khilaune liye hue
bachchon ko ab khushi se uchhalna bhi aa gaya

thi muddaton jo chhai hui mujh pe be-hisi
dekha tumhein to dil ko machalna bhi aa gaya

'sabir' mere liye the jo dushwar raste
un raston pe ab mujhe chalna bhi aa gaya
