gharib hum hain gharibon ki bhi KHushi ho jae

aarzu bhi to kar nahin aati

aati thi pahle dil se kabhi bu kabab ki

hina ye kahti hai lo be-zaban pa ke mujhe

kaun dil hai mere allah jo nashad nahin

ye bala mere sar chaDhi hi nahin

dar khula subh ko pau phaTte hi mai-KHane ka

kisi se wasl mein sunte hi jaan sukh gai

hamein pine-pilane ka maza ab tak nahin aaya

baala-e-baam ghair hai mein aastan par

jafa mein nam nikalo na aasman ki tarah

jaan niklegi meri jaan baDi mushkil se

KHwab mein bhi nazar aa jae jo ghar ki surat

kahne bhi kuchh na pae the aah-e-rasa se hum

mere pahlu mein hamesha rahi surat achchhi
