har ek faisla usne behtar kiya

barae tishna-lab pani nahin hai

aankhon mein dhup dil mein hararat lahu ki thi

waqt-e-qayam dast-e-qaza ne nahin diya

rang-o-ramish zamzame gul-ha-e-tar hote hue

jhapaTte hain jhapaTne ke liye parwaz karte hain

rasta pur-Khaar dilli dur hai

shayad ki mar gaya mere andar ka aadmi

jo suraj ho to har manzar ujala kyun nahin karte

jahan-dar pe war chalne laga

hunar-mandi se jine ka hunar ab tak nahin aaya

muqabla ho to sine pe war karta hai

nahin hai agar un mein barish hawa

KHata gaya jo nishana kaman badalta hai

yahan se hai kahani raat wali
