sine pe kitne dagh liye phir raha hun main
zakhmon ka ek bagh liye phir raha hun main

dar hai ki tirgi mein qadam dagmaga na jae
ek shahr-e-be-charagh liye phir raha hun main

saqi na puchh aaj ke shisha-garon ka haal
tuta hua ayagh liye phir raha hun main

kya jaane kis ke nam hai ye nama-e-karam
milta nahin suragh liye phir raha hun main

puchhe na jis ko haal na mustaqbil-e-hasin
mazi ka wo dimagh liye phir raha hun main

'nayyar' ho aaise daur mein kya raushni ki baat
bin tel ka charagh liye phir raha hun main
