saya-e-be-aman se kya hasil
zindagi is jahan se kya hasil

kuchh bhi dekha na hum ne ji bhar ke
aisi umr-e-rawan se kya hasil

dil hai mera to gham nahin mera
aise rabt-e-nihan se kya hasil

jab qadam apne uth na pate hon
tezi-e-ham-rahan se kya hasil

naqd-e-jaan gar aziz hai to 'saba'
zikr-e-ku-e-butan se kya hasil
