ye dosti ka taqaza hai isko dhyan mein rakh
kuchh ab ke jang pe uski giraft aisi thi
guman ki qaid-e-hisar-e-qayas se niklo
hum tere shahr se yun jaan-e-wafa lauT aae
nafas nafas ko hawa ki rikab mein rakhna
usi ke pyar ko dil se nikal rakkha hai
khinch kar mujhko har ek naqsh-o-nishan le jae
zamin-e-fikr mein lafzon ke jangal chhoD jaana
phisalne wala tha KHud ko magar sambhaal gaya
