shikasta chhat na sahi aasman rahne de
kada hai waqt koi saeban rahne de

kuchh aur tang na ho jae jangalon ka hisar
fasil-e-shahr abhi darmiyan rahne de

qarib-e-shahr pahunch kar ghubar-e-rah na jhad
thake badan pe safar ka nishan rahne de

na chhin mujh se mere roz-o-shab ke hangame
main ji raha hun mujhe ye guman rahne de

bhadak uthe na samundar ki tishnagi 'rashid'
mera lahu bhi sar-e-baadban rahne de
