tum bhi rahne lage khafa sahab
kahin saya mera pada sahab

hai ye banda hi bewafa sahab
ghair aur tum bhale bhala sahab

kyun ulajhte ho jumbish-e-lab se
khair hai main ne kya kiya sahab

kyun lage dene khatt-e-azadi
kuchh gunah bhi ghulam ka sahab

hae ri chhed raat sun sun ke
haal mera kaha ki kya sahab

dam-e-akhir bhi tum nahin aate
bandagi ab ki main chala sahab

sitam aazar zulm o jaur o jafa
jo kiya so bhala kiya sahab

kis se bigde the kis pe ghussa tha
raat tum kis pe the khafa sahab

kis ko dete the galiyan lakhon
kis ka shab zikr-e-khair tha sahab

nam-e-ishq-e-butan na lo 'momin'
kijiye bas khuda khuda sahab
