main kab se nind ka mara hua hun aur kab se

zara ye dhup Dhal jae to un ka haal puchhenge

andheron mein bhaTakna hai pareshani mein rahna hai

reza reza kar diya jis ne mere ehsas ko

mere andar kai ehsas patthar ho rahe hain

hum apne ghar mein bhi ab be-sar-o-saman se rahte hain

nae manzar ke KHwabon se bhi Dar lagta hai un ko

the jis ka markazi kirdar ek umr talak

kuchh talab mein bhi izafa karti hain mahrumiyan

koi bhi yaqin dil ko shad kar nahin sakta

yahi qatre banate hain kabhi to ghas par moti

bhanwar jab bhi kisi majbur kashti ko Dubota hai

ye sach hai chand lamhon ke liye bismil taDapta hai

ragon mein zahr-e-KHamoshi utarne se zara pahle

kabhi uruj pe tha KHud pe etimad mera
