samne ji sambhaal kar rakhna
phir wahi apna haal kar rakhna

aa gae ho to is kharabe mein
ab qadam dekh-bhaal kar rakhna

sham hi se baras rahi hai raat
rang apne sambhaal kar rakhna

ishq kar-e-payambarana hai
jis ko chhuna misal kar rakhna

kisht karna mohabbaten aur phir
khud use paemal kar rakhna

roz jaana udas galiyon mein
roz khud ko nidhaal kar rakhna

sakht mushkil hai aainon se 'rasa'
wahimon ko nikal kar rakhna
