ek haqiqat hun agar izhaar ho jaunga main

uski jam-e-jam aankhen shisha-e-badan mera

sulag raha hai koi shaKHs kyun abas mujh mein

hasin KHwab na de ab yaqin-e-sada de

ana rahi na meri mutlaq-ul-inani ki

apne hone ka ek ik pal tajraba karte rahe

bulandiyon ke dhundalke mein tha KHuda sa laga

qadam qadam pe naya imtihan hai mere liye

abhi gunah ka mausam hai aa shabab mein aa

apni aankhon ko umidon se sajae rakhna

wada-e-wasl hai lazzat-e-intizar uTha

bina-e-arz-o-falak harf-e-ibtida hun main

baDa muKHlis hun paband-e-wafa hun

lafzon mein ek nae safar ka karta hai aaghaz badan

dasht-o-sahra phir se apnaen bhi kya
