KHud ko hujum-e-dahr mein khona paDa mujhe

apni majburi batata raha ro kar mujhko

wo mila mujhko na jaane KHol kaisa oDh kar

tera hai kaam kaman mein use lagane tak

hai justuju agar isko idhar bhi aaega

abhi to dil mein hai jo kuchh bayan karna hai

apna sara bojh zamin par phenk diya

gire hain lafz waraq pe lahu lahu ho kar

jila-watan hun mera ghar pukarta hai mujhe

suraj nae baras ka mujhe jaise Das gaya

mere nuqush tere zehn se miTa dega

tamam umr safar ka samar milega mujhe

chand phir taron ki ujli rezgari de gaya

uske chehre ki chamak ke samne sada laga

hath hathon mein na de baat hi karta jae
