bazm aaKHir hui shamon ka dhuan baqi hai

dekhne ke liye ek shart hai manzar hona

jaane kisi ne kya kaha tez hawa ke shor mein

na puchho aql ki charbi chaDhi hai uski boTi par

soch mein gum be-karan pahnaiyan

umr bhar kawish-e-izhaar ne sone na diya

ishq aur itna mohazzab chhoD kar diwana-pan

dukh de ya ruswai de

ja ke phir lauT jo aae wo zamana kaisa

mujhe in aate jate mausamon se Dar nahin lagta

didani hai hamari zebai

lamha-e-rafta ka dil mein zaKHm sa ban jaega

dil ke andar dard aankhon mein nami ban jaiye

tere sanche mein Dhalta ja raha hun

jo dil mein hain dagh jal rahe hain
