nazar mein door talak rahaguzar zarooree hai
kisee bhee samt ho lekin safar zarooree hai
apanee hee zaat ke mahabas mein samaane se utha
dard ehasaas ka seene mein dabaane se utha
yahee ik saaneha kuchh kam nahin hai
hamaara gam tumhaara gam nahin hai
taameer-o-taraqqee vaale hain kahie bhee to un ko kya kahie
jo sheesh-mahal mein baithe hue mazadoor kee baaten karate hain
jab dhoop sar pe thee to akela tha mein obaid
ab chhaanv aa gaee hai to sab yaar aae hain
koee dimaag se koee shareer se haara
main apane haath kee andhee lakeer se haara
shokhee kisee mein hai na sharaarat hai ab obaid
bachche hamaare daur ke sanjeeda ho gae
sohabat mein jaahilon kee guzaare the chand roz
phir ye hua main vaaqif-e-aadaab ho gaya
aangan aangan khoon ke chheente chehara chehara be-chehara
kis kis ghar ka zikr karoon mein kis kis ke sadamaat likhoon
hamen hijarat samajh mein itanee aaee
parinda aab-o-daana chaahata hai
