sar se chaadar badan se qaba le gaee
zindagee ham faqeeron se kya le gaee
meree muththee mein sookhe huye phool hain
khushabuon ko uda kar hava le gaee
main samundar ke seene mein chattaan tha
raat ek mauj aaee baha le gaee
ham jo kaagaz the ashkon se bheege huye
kyon chiraagon kee lau tak hava le gaee
chaand ne raat mujhako jaga kar kaha
ek ladakee tumhaara pata le gaee
meree shoharat siyaasat se mahafoos hai
ye tavaayaf bhee ismat bacha le gaee
