jiinaa azaab kyuu.N hai ye kyaa ho gayaa mujhe
kis shaKhs kii lagii hai bhalaa bad-duaa mujhe

bananaa pa.Daa hai aap hii apanaa Khudaa mujhe
kis kufr kii milii hai bhalaa ye sazaa mujhe

ye kah ke mai.n ne rakkhaa hai har aa_iine kaa dil
agale janam me.n ruup milegaa nayaa mujhe

nikale the dono.n bhes badal kar to kyaa ajab
mai.n Dhuu.NDhataa Khudaa ko phiraa aur Khudaa mujhe

tuu mutama_iin nahi.n to mujhe kab hai aitaraaz
miTTii ko phir se goo.Ndh merii, phir banaa mujhe

[mutama_iin = satisfied]
