kisi se kya kahen sunen agar ghubar ho gae

zaKHm khana hi jab muqaddar ho

ab is makan mein naya koi dar nahin karna

un aankhon mein rang-e-mai nahin hai

kisi ka aks-e-badan tha na wo sharara tha

udhar se aae to phir lauT kar nahin gae hum

nahin aasman teri chaal mein nahin aaunga

badan-sarab na dariya-e-jaan se milta hai

sar-ba-sar paikar-e-izhaar mein lata hai mujhe

sawad-e-sham na rang-e-sahar ko dekhte hain
