zehn mein khwabon ke kuchh paikar saja kar rakh diye
hum ne apne ghar ki diwaron pe chhappar rakh diye

shish-mahlon ke muhafiz ne guzishta raat ko
shahr ki galiyon mein aawazon ke patthar rakh diye

hath chhu lun to mahak jae wo phulon ki tarah
kis ne us ke dil mein khushbu ke sanobar rakh diye

mere sheron se bahut barham hain fankaran-e-shahr
main ne zarre aasmanon ke barabar rakh diye

main daba jata hun apne shahr ke kirdar mein
apne apne bojh sab ne mere upar rakh diye
