bichhaD ke tujhse mayassar hue visal ke din

abhi kuchh aur bhi gard-o-ghubar ubhrega

lafz to hon lab-e-guftar na rahne pae

jahil ko agar jehl ka inam diya jae

KHabar kya thi na milne ke nae asbab kar dega

wo barg-e-KHushk tha aur daman-e-bahaar mein tha

be-KHabar sa tha magar sab ki KHabar rakhta tha

ehtimam-e-rasan-o-dar se kiya hota hai

be-sabab log badalte nahin maskan apna

dosto bargah-e-qatl sajate jao

yunhi to shaKH se patte gira nahin karte

zawiya koi muqarrar nahin hone pata

saron ki fasl kaTi ja rahi hai

tu kabhi KHud ko be-KHabar to kar

ta-der hum ba-dida-e-tar dekhte rahe
