samundar bhi agarche kam bahut hai
meri tishna-labi mein dam bahut hai

bahut din baad khat aaya hai un ka
mizaj-e-dil-baran barham bahut hai

ghalat akhbar ne likkha tha nafrat
yahan to pyar ka mausam bahut hai

agar rona hai to rone ki khatir
husain ibn-e-ali ka gham bahut hai

tumhaare qahqahon mein jaan kitni
hamare aansoon mein dam bahut hai
