un ke huzur nazr-e-mayassar hi le chalen
aansu nahin to khushk samundar hi le chalen

ikhlas chahta hai unhen apna ham-safar
wo khwah aastin mein khanjar hi le chalen

hum izn-e-arz-e-haal pe ab kashmakash mein hain
dil ko ye zid hai shauq ka daftar hi le chalen

ganj-e-qafas mein hogi na ye bazm-e-rang-o-bu
manzar jo samne hai wo manzar hi le chalen

daman mein gul nahin to bara-e-subut-e-sair
sehn-e-chaman se khar ke nashtar hi le chalen

sarmaya-e-'uruj' hain taza ghazal ke phul
bazm-e-sukhan mein shakh-e-gul-e-tar hi le chalen
