mana ki zalzala tha yahan kam bahut hi kam
faza mein karb ka ehsas gholti hui raat
andhere DhunDne nikle khanDar kyun
raat ke gumbad mein yaadon ka basera ho gaya hai
sazishon ki bhiD mein tarikiyan sar par uThae
mamta-bhari nigah ne roka to Dar laga
pesh-e-manzar jo tamashe the pas-e-manzar bhi the
ehsas-e-be-talab ka hi ilzam do hamein
aise bhi kuchh lamhe yaro aaenge
raushni bhar KHala pe bar the hum
ufuq pe dudhiya saya jo panw dharne laga
nashat-e-dard ke mausam mein gar nami kam hai
be-talluq ruh ka jab jism se rishta hua
fikr kam bayan kam
andhere band kamron mein paDe the
