zindagi maut ke pahlu mein bhali lagti hai

salim dasht-e-tamanna mein kaun hai kis ka

tark un se rasm-o-rah-e-mulaqat ho gai

ishq mein jis ke ye ahwal bana rakkha hai

KHud apni lau mein tha mehrab-e-jaan mein jalta tha

nind se pahle

mashriq haar gaya

aafaq

naya makan

pagal

mujhse kahta hai ki sae ki tarah sath hain hum

wo be-KHudi thi mohabbat ki be-ruKHi to na thi

na jaane sher mein kis dard ka hawala tha

KHush-numa lafzon ki rishwat de ke raazi kijiye

sae ko sae mein gum hote to dekha hoga
