ye dosti ka taqaza hai is ko dhyan mein rakh
hamesha fasla thoda sa darmiyan mein rakh

badalne wala hai khurshid-tab ka mausam
to koi der abhi khud ko saeban mein rakh

safina khud hi tera ja lagega sahil se
hawa lapet ke thodi si baadban mein rakh

subut apni shujaat ka tujh ko dena hai
shikasta tir kadakti hui kaman mein rakh

tere sukhan ke sada log honge girwida
mithas urdu ki thodi bahut zaban mein rakh

'mubarak' aur kahin par panah-gah na dhund
tu apne aap ko allah ki aman mein rakh
