yaqin ko sinchna hai khwabon ko palna hai
bacha hai thoda sa jo asasa sambhaalna hai

sawal ye hai chhuda len masalon se daman
ki in mein rah kar hi koi rasta nikalna hai

jahan-e-saudagari mein dil ka wakil ban kar
is ahd ki munsifi ko hairat mein dalna hai

jo mujh mein baitha udata rahta hai nind meri
mujhe ab us aadmi ko bahar nikalna hai

zamin zakhmon pe tere marham bhi hum rakhenge
abhi gadi suiyon ko tan se nikalna hai

kisi ko maidan mein utarna hai jitna hai
kisi ko ta-umr sirf sikka uchhaalna hai

ye naw kaghaz ki jis ne naddi to par kar li
kuchh aur sikhe ab is ko dariya mein dalna hai
