ye zaman-o-makan ka sitam bhi naya

apni yahi pahchan, yahi apna pata hai

tazkire fahm o KHirad ke to yahan hote hain

hum nae hain na hai ye kahani nai

dariya-e-mohabbat mein maujen hain na dhaara hai

hadd-e-fasil to faqat dard ka sahra nikli

aae the kyun sahra mein jugnu ban kar

kohsar to kahin pe samundar bhi aaenge

aaina hun ki main patthar hun ye kab puchhe hai

wo jo umr bhar mein kahi gai sar-e-sham-e-hijr likhi gai

hijr-o-visal ke nae manzar bhi aaenge

labon ko khol to kaisa bhi ho jawab to de

kya ahd-e-nau mein apni pahchan dekhta hun

har mauj-e-hawadis rakhti hai sine mein bhanwar kuchh pinhan bhi

jo parind KHwahishon ke kabhi hum shikar karte
