sawad-e-shahr se aghmaz karna chahta hun
ki main apna safar aaghaz karna chahta hun

khajil hunga mata-e-ishq par shayad kisi din
abhi is faisle par naz karna chahta hun

rag-e-jaan se bhi jo nazdik aata ja raha hai
main kya sach-much use hamraaz karna chahta hun

ulatna chahta hun aaj mazi ke waraq main
ki farda ka daricha baz karna chahta hun

kisi ke samne rakkhe hue ek aaine ko
main apni ruh ka ghammaz karna chahta hun

parindon ko zara si der chup rahne ka kah kar
hawa ko zamzama-pardaz karna chahta hun

manana chahta hun ruthne walon ko 'sajid'
magar ek shakhs ko naraaz karna chahta hun
