Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan
wo ek KHwab jo dekha gaya tha ujlat mein
zindagi ko ek KHwab-e-raegan samjha tha main
jaise yaad-e-imbisat-o-gham shakebai ke baad
hai jabr waqt ka qissa ajab sunae kaun
kabhi hawa to kabhi KHak-e-rahguzar hona
ye hadisa mujhe hairan kar gaya sar-e-sham
KHun se jab jala diya ek diya bujha hua
uski KHwahish hai yahi harf-e-wazahat ke baghair
aawaz mein aawaz milate hi rahe hum
hamari tarah koi dusra hua bhi nahin
main kab se apni talash mein hun mila nahin hun
ishq ne hum ko junun-asar aisa kar diya
yaad kya dast-e-hunar hai ki sanwarta gaya main
dil agar kuchh mang lene ki ijazat mangta
na puchhiye ki kaha kya hai an-kahi kya hai
