tirgi mein subh ki tanwir ban jaenge hum
khwab tum dekhoge aur tabir ban jaenge hum

ab ke ye socha hai gar aazad tum ne kar diya
khud hi apne panw ki zanjir ban jaenge hum

aansuon se likh rahe hain bebasi ki dastan
lag raha hai dard ki taswir ban jaenge hum

likh na pae jo kisi ki nim-baz aaankhon ka raaz
wo ye wada kar rahe hain 'mir' ban jaenge hum

gar yun hi badhta raha din raat shughl-e-mai-kashi
ek din is mai-kade ke pir ban jaenge hum

us ne bhi auron ke jaisa hi kiya hum se suluk
jo ye kahta tha teri taqdir ban jaenge hum
