tark karni thi har ek rasm-e-jahan

is hi buniyaad par kyun na mil jaen hum

jab thi manzil nazar mein to rasta tha ek

yaqin ka daera dekha hai kis ne

tum apne aks mein kya dekhte ho

har ek raste pe chal kar sochte hain

ashk Dhalte nahin dekhe jate

phir nai hijrat koi darpesh hai

kabhi socha hai miTTi ke alawa

manzaron ke bhi pare hain manzar

sajate ho badan bekar jawed

zamin ko aur uncha mat uThao

shairi peT ki KHatir jawed

sahil pe log yunhi khaDe dekhte rahe

aap ke jate hi hum ko lag gai aawargi
