KHamoshiyon ko aalam-e-aswat par kabhi

dasht ke KHema-e-dariya mein makin koi tha

shab ko jab yurish-e-wijdan mein aa jate hain

kuchh sulagte hue KHwabon ki farawani hai

hum ki sarmaya-e-iqan liye baiThe hain

ab to lafzon ke taqazon ka bharosa na raha

khula hai tere badan ka bhi istiara kuchh

darpesh to hain dida-e-hairan hazaron

ek ek tar-e-nafas aashufta-e-ahang tha

zamin ke jism pe yun yurish-e-qaza kab tak

mauj-dar-mauj to sahil ki ragon par dauDe

jabin ko chain kahan zer-e-lab dua hai bas

hamare chehron mein pinhan hain zawiye kya kya

talluqat ke sare diye bujhe hue the

darun-e-jism ki diwar se ubharti hai
