sabhi dil-shad manzar chhod aaya
safar mein hun main ghar-war chhod aaya

talluq tishnagi se hai purana
ye socha aur samundar chhod aaya

meri qurbaniyan kya puchhte ho
parinda hun aur ambar chhod aaya

bhatakne ka tha aisa shauq mujh ko
ki main daman-e-rahbar chhod aaya

jahan se zindagi ki ibtida ki
usi ja maut ka dar chhod aaya

marammat mein bahut kharcha tha sahab
main apne khwab jarjar chhod aaya

mujhe 'afrang' dukh is baat ka hai
main us ki aankhon ko tar chhod aaya
