jism hai tera rang ki duniya
rup hai tera nur ki wadi

tu bhi majbur hai clerki par
ai clerkon ke dil ki shahzadi

teri aankhen surur ka mandir
teri zulfen bahaar ka maskan

aur type ki gat pe nachta hai
tera doshiza naghmai joban

tere un aarizon ke phulon par
gulistan ka guman hota hai

aur tera ghurur-e-zebai
filon se lipat ke rota hai

apni zau se jhijak raha hai charagh
tujh se darti hai teri parchhain

zindagi ki zaruraten tujh ko
kin ajab raston pe le aaen

tu bhi wo sher-e-dil-nashin hai jise
aaj tak koi qadr-dan na mila

khud sarapa bahaar hai lekin
tera apna chaman kabhi na khila

aaj tak tu ne zakhm khae hain
rang-afshan gulon ke dhoke mein

aa saja lun tere tajassus ko
apne ehsas ke jharoke mein

aaina kis liye hai zang-alud
phul ki pankhudi pe sil kyun hai

dekh kar tujh ko sochta hun main
zindagi itni tang-dil kyun hai
