ba-samar hone ki ummid pe baiTha hun main

kuchh aur bhi ziyaada sanwar ke dikhaunga

KHud apna bojh uThao yahan se kuch karo

wadi-e-gham mein tere sath sath bhaTak raha hun main

dast-e-hunar jhaTakte hi zaea hunar gaya

main kab se be-Khaal-o-KHat paDa hun

dhund se lipTa rasta

KHwab-kadon se wapsi

kabhi kabhi

badan ka nauha

dar-e-imkan ki dastak mujhe bheji gai hai

kya ho sake hisab ki jab aagahi kahe

ye jhank leti hai andar se aarzu-KHana

ye kya ki baiTha hai dariya kinar-e-dariya par
