Main haadson se jaam larrata chala gaya,

Main haadson se jaam larrata chala gaya,
Hansta hansata, peeta pilaata chala gaya,

Utne he ikhtelaaf ubharte chale gaye,
Jitne talluqaat barrhata chala gaya,

Toofaan k rahem per theen faqeeron ki kashtiyan
Toofaan he kashtiyon ko chalaata chala gaya,

Duniya meri khushi ko bohat ghoorti rahi,
Main zindgi ka saaz bajata chala gaya,

Aati rahi jawab main awaaz_e_baaz-gasht,
Jub tak main us haseen ko bulaata chala gaya,

Wo rafta rafta jaam pilaate chale gaye,
Main rafta rafta hosh main aata chala gaya,

Her mae-kaday se aik aqeedat thi 

Her mah-jabeen se aankh milaata chala gaya...!!!
