sanson ko karb zist gham-e-be-panah ko
kis kis ko mutmain main karun khwah-makhwah ko

suraj ke par dekh sako gar meri tarah
tab ja ke paoge meri hadd-e-nigah ko

main is fareb-gah mein wo aadam-gazida hun
dhunde hai jo andheron mein ja-e-panah ko

apna na main hua to bhala kaun hai mera
apnae kyun koi kisi gum-karda-rah ko

main hadson ki bhid mein tanha khada hua
aawaz de raha hun kisi khair-khwah ko

saya bhi ham-qadam na mera ho isi liye
khatir mein laya main na kisi intibah ko
