mustaqil rone se dil ki be-kali baDh jaegi

rishton ke jab tar ulajhne lagte hain

danista jo ho na sake nadani se ho jata hai

kab tak gardish mein rahna hai kuchh to bata ayyam mujhe

paraya lag raha tha jo wahi apna nikal aaya

qurbaten nahin rakkhin fasla nahin rakkha

chahaton ke KHwab ki tabir thi bilkul alag

dayar-e-zat mein jab KHamushi mahsus hoti hai

sachchaiyon ko bar-sar-e-paikar chhoD kar

did ki tamanna mein aankh bhar ke roe the

kuchh na kuchh silsila hi ban jata

meri hi baat sunti hai mujhi se baat karti hai

KHwahish-e-parwaz hai to baal-o-par bhi chahiye

KHwab jine nahin denge tujhe KHwabon se nikal

phir wo be-samt uDanon ki kahani sun kar
