hamare hausloN ko theek se jab jaan lete haiN
allag hi raste phir aandhi-0-tufaan lete haiN

laabda koi audheye tu magar hum jaan lete haiN
tujhe ae zindgi hum duur se pehchan lete haiN

bohat hai naaz rutbe par unheN apne, chalo mana
kahan hum bhi kisi magroor ka ehsan lete haiN

tapish mein dhoop ki barsoN pighalte haiN ye parvat jab
zara phir lutf nadiyoN ka ye tab maidaan lete haiN

hua beta bada haakim, bhala ussko batana kya
ki karwat bhaap ke seene mein kuch armaan lete haiN

ho beete umr sholoN par hi chalte-daudte jinki
qadam unnke kahan phir raste asaan lete haiN

ishara vo kareN beshaq udhar halka-sa bhi koi
idhar hum toh khuda ka hi samjh farmaan lete haiN

hai dhalti shaam jab tu puchta hai din thaka-sa roz
sitare duubte suraj se kya saamaan lete haiN ?
