jaane kis aalam-e-ehsas mein khoe hue hain
bhul gaya KHushki mein rawani
ba-zahir ye wahi milne bichhaDne ki hikayat hai
jo gum-gashta hai uski zat kya hai
nigah-e-tishna se hairat ka bab dekhte hain
hina-rang hathon mein
hua hai qarya-e-jaan mein ye saneha kaisa
ghuTan se bach ke kahin sans le nahin sakte
arman bas ek lazzat-e-izhaar ke siwa
bacha kya rah gaya kalak bhare jhulse makanon mein
