main KHud ko har ek samt se gher kar

thoDi der ko hum jo kahin ruk jate to ye mumkin tha

bana de aur bhi kuchh dur ki sada mujhko

ye shahr shahr sar-e-am ab munadi hai

zamana hai ki mujhe roz sham Dasta hai

talKH suna hai ji tera arsa hua niDhaal hai

mahsus jo hota hai ki hum hain bhi nahin bhi

sans roke raho lo phir wo sada aati hai

ye main nahin hun jo shamon ko ghar mein aata hun

kholega raaz kaun teri kaenat ke

kis liye sab ko ajab bojh laga sar apna

shikasta-pa ko bhi ab zauq-e-rah-nawardi hai

abhi shuur ne bas dukhti rag TaToli hai

sabit ye main karunga ki hun ya nahin hun main

zikr hai dard ka ek shahr basa hai mujhse
