zindagi aa tera arman badal kar dekhen
dil mein hai jo mere mehman badal kar dekhen

sham-e-ummid ke manind mila hai koi
hijr ki dhup ka unwan badal kar dekhen

us ne bakhsha hamein eazaz shanasai ka
kyun na hum apni hi pahchan badal kar dekhen

meri aankhon mein nae rang ubhar aae hain
sain ghar ka sar-o-saman badal kar dekhen

aql gul khud ko hai samjhe hue jo khak-nashin
us ke dil ka ye kabhi man badal kar dekhen

dosh dete hain har ek baat pe haalat ko jo
apne andar ka wo insan badal kar dekhen

fan ki duniya mein nai subh ka suraj bo kar
aao hum apna gulistan badal kar dekhen

hum ujala hain ujalon se mohabbat hai hamein
fann-e-takhliq teri shan badal kar dekhen

zehn ki jhil mein khil uttha mohabbat ka kanwal
dil mein jo gham ka hai tufan badal kar dekhen

'rumi' puja wo mukammal nahin hone deta
man ke andar hai jo bhagwan badal kar dekhen
