haal hawa jab puchhne aai hum majburon se

KHak par KHak ki Dheriyan rah gain

phir wahi mehrban hua aai

zindagi mein kisi ruKH ka kisi dukh ka hona

khula mujh par dar-e-imkan rakhna

Dar ye hai bazuon mein mom ki surat na pighal jae kahin

rang sa phirta hai zer-e-asman dekha hua

nur nur zehnon mein KHauf ke andhere hain

socho to kuchh na samjho samjho to kuchh na bolo

patthar se kya shakl nikale ye hum kya jaanen

sitam-taraaz talak zaKHm-ashna bhi to ho

gham faraham hain magar unki farawani nahin

pyas lagna thi lagi sarshaar hona tha hue

dil bhar aae to samundar nahin dekhe jate

tund-KHui pe tanz kar jaun
