zindagi dard se mamur hui jati hai sarkhushi dur bahut dur hui jati hai din ko pal bhar mein mayassar nahin sukh chain mujhe raat ki nind bhi kafur hui jati hai zindagi sham-o-sahar thokaren khate khate zahr-e-gham pine pe majbur hui jati hai gham-o-alam ki zulmat hai kuchh is tarah muhit zindagi ek shab-e-dijur hui jati hai apne ahbab bhi ab milte hain begana-sifat be-rukhi dahr ka dastur hui jati hai mujh ko duniya ke rawayye pe tajjub hai bahut dil mera tod ke maghrur hui jati hai kis ke tute hue dil ki ye sada hai yaro anjuman be-khud-o-masrur hui jati hai soz-e-pinhan ki jhalak hai tere sheron mein 'bahaar' khush-nawai teri mashhur hui jati hai
