na-rasai ka chalo jashn manaen ham log
shayad is tarah se kuchh khoen to paaen ham log
ret hi ret agar apna muqaddar thahra
kyunki phir ek gharaunda hi banaen ham log
jism ki qaid koi qaid nahin hoti hai
aao sab jhuti haden tod ke jaaen ham log
is badalte hue mausam ka bharosa bhi nahin
giili mitti pe koi naqsh sajaen ham log
rok paenge na lamhat ke mausam ham ko
ek divar zamana to havaen ham log
apne jazbat ke pakiza tahaffuz ke liye
kabhi malbus kabhi garm ridaen ham log
koi suraj na kisi raat ke daman men gira
mangte hi rahe sadiyon se duaen ham log
chand utra nahin ab tak bhi zamin par ‘shabnam’
ek muddat hui dete hain sadaen ham log
