Bim-o-raja mein qaid har ek mah-o-sal hai

bim-o-raja mein qaid har ek mah-o-sal hai
jaise ye zindagi bhi koi yarghamal hai

uljha hun aati jati sadaon se barha
bichhDa hun har nawa se ki KHwab-o-KHayal hai

TuTa hun is tarah ki bikharta chala gaya
bikhra hun is tarah ki sanwarna muhaal hai

is jabr-o-iKHtiyar se pamal main bhi hun
ai ruh-e-ehtijaj bata kya KHayal hai

viran rahguzar pe uDti hai roz KHak
ab tak meri talash mein baad-e-shimal hai

surat-gari ke shauq ne gumrah kar diya
ab main meri jabin mera dast-e-sawal hai

bas yunhi mat guzar kabhi sahba se baat kar
kahte hain us se milna baDa nek fal hai
