dhamka ke bose lunga ruKH-e-rashk-e-mah ka

kabe se jo but nikle bhi to kya kaba hi gaya jo dil se nikal

puchha akbar hai aadmi kaisa

tifl mein bu aae kya man bap ke atwar ki

hum aisi kul kitaben qabil-e-zabti samajhte hain

jab gham hua chaDha lin do botalen ikaTThi

sidhaaren shaiKH kaba ko hum inglistan dekhenge

ishq ke izhaar mein har-chand ruswai to hai

log kahte hain badalta hai zamana sab ko

main bhi graduate hun tum bhi graduate

kuchh allahabad mein saman nahin bahbud ke

ab to hai ishq-e-butan mein zindagani ka maza

raqibon ne rapaT likhwai hai ja ja ke thane mein

tayyar the namaz pe hum sun ke zikr-e-hur

haqiqi aur majazi shaeri mein farq ye paya
