rindan-e-baada-nosh ki chhagal utha to la
baad-e-bahaar daud ke baadal utha to la

aa umr-e-rafta hashr ke dam-kham bhi dekh len
tufan-e-zindagi ki wo halchal utha to la

sar se dayar-e-gham ke sanichar utar de
mangal hai jis mein ja ke wo jangal utha to la

lalach bata ke dur se waiz ka rang dekh
khali hi kyun na ho koi botal utha to la

ai zindagi junun na sahi be-khudi sahi
tu kuchh bhi apni aql se pagal utha to la

aati hai yaad subh-e-masarrat ki bar bar
khurshid aate aate use kal utha to la

kashti hai ghat par to chale kyun na daur aaj
kal bas chale chale na chale chal utha to la

'natiq' junun-e-khidmat-e-ahbab kis liye
dekhen to kya mila hai tujhe phal utha to la
