zinda rahne ke liye asbab de

zara qarib se dekhun to koi raaz khule

ek chehra hai jo aankhon mein basa rahta hai

palkon pe le ke bojh kahan tak phira karun

sath chawal ke ye kankar bhi nigal jata hai

jise na aane ki qasMein main de ke aaya hun

girne wala hai mera bojh sambhaale koi

be-saya na ho jae kahin ghar mera yarab

miT jaane ke aasar wirasat mein mile hain

chand ka qurb laga kaisa chalo puchh aaen

samajhne se raha qasir ki danista nahin samjha

mujhko ye mohtat iKHlas-e-nazar achchha laga

dekhna chhoDe nahin KHwab meri aankhon ne

dar-ba-dar ho gae tabir ki dhun mein kitne

muddat hui ki zinda hun dekhe baghair use
