Apne hunar ki dhaak

Apne hunar ki dhaak bithane main dair ki,
Jo dekhte rahe woh dikhane main dair ki,

Woh bhi qabooliyat ki ghadi dhoondta raha,
Maine bhi apne haath uthane main dair ki,

Kis ko khabar hai us ki sehar kis jahan main ho,
Jungle main jis ne aag jalane main dair ki,

Mumkin hai ab ki baar woh bach kar na ja saken,
Choron ne mil kar shor machane main dair ki,

Ik baat thi jo waqt pe main keh nahin saka,
Ik khawab tha jo maine sunane main dair ki,

Tamoor main ne us ko gale se laga liya,
Jis ne bhi mujh se hath milane main dair ki..
