ji mein Thani hai ki jina hai bahar-haal mujhe

na jaane kab wo palaT aaen dar khula rakhna

koi baadal mere tapte jism par barsa nahin

mujhse nafrat hai agar usko to izhaar kare

hazar talKH hon yaaden magar wo jab bhi mile

kaTi hai umr kisi aabdoz kashti mein

bahti rahi nadi mere ghar ke qarib se

diwar o dar jhulaste rahe tez dhup mein

agarche phul ye apne liye KHaride hain

tu to un ka bhi gila karta hai jo tere na the

is qadar bhi to na jazbaat pe qabu rakkho

na ho ki qurb hi phir marg-e-rabt ban jae

main shisha kyun na bana aadmi hua kyunkar

tera hai kaam kaman mein use lagane tak

jis ghaDi aaya palaT kar ek mera bichhDa hua
