apne gham uchhaal de

dil se gham nikaal de
shairii meiN dhal de.

tauba–tauba! kashmkash!
maan le ya taal de.

dillagi bhi kar kabhi
machhliyoN ko jaal de.

hum faqeer muntzir
apne gham uchhaal de.

aaiine ko rakh pare
ik balaa to taal de.

uljhaneN aziz haiN
de koi sawaal de.

aaNkh phir chhalak paRi
la, mujhe roomaal de.
