tute hue ped gin raha hun
main apne paron ko dekhta hun

lab-basta hun phir bhi bolta hun
yar khud se nabard-azma hun

basti koi rah na jae baqi
dar dar pe sada laga chuka hun

honton pe sukut khamushi hai
lamhon ke hisar mein ghira hun

raste hain tamam ate ate se
main kaise kahun gurez-pa hun

ai nahr-e-furaat de gawahi
pyason ka khiraj mangta hun

shayad koi shahsawar nikle
sahra pe kamand dalta hun

khud par yaqin uth chala hai
ab raat dhali to so gaya hun
