Sunte haiN phir chhup chhup unke ghar meN aate jaate ho

Sunte haiN phir chhup chhup unke ghar meN aate jaate ho
Insha saahab naahaq jii ko vahshat meN uljhaate ho

Dil kii baat chhupaanii mushkil,lekin Khuub chhupaate ho
Ban meN daanaa, shahr ke andar diivaane kahlaate ho

Bekal bekal rahte ho, par mehfil ke aadaab ke saath
AaNkh churaa kar dekhte ho, phir bhole bhii ban jaate ho

Peet meN aise laakh jatan haiN, lekin ek din sab nakaam
Aap jahaaN meN rusvaa hoge, vaa’z hameN farmaate ho

Ham se naam junuuN kaa qaayam, ham se dasht kii aabaadii
ham se dard ka shikvaa karte, ham ko zakhm dikhaate ho?
