raat ki ninden to pahle hi uDa kar le gaya

khile jo phul to munh chhup gaya sitaron ka

kahin bhi saya nahin kis taraf chale koi

na sahi kuchh magar itna to kiya karte the

dil-e-fasurda use kyun gale laga na liya

bhaTakti hain zamane mein hawaen

sabt hai chehron pe chup ban mein andhera ho chuka

teri talash to kya teri aas bhi na rahe

dil se ye kah raha hun zara aur dekh le

dil ka bura nahin magar shaKHs ajib Dhab ka hai

jaane kis samt se hawa aai

KHalq ne chhin li mujhse meri tanhai tak

uThin aankhen agar aahaT suni hai

ghar jala leta hai KHud apne hi anwar se tu

kaun kahta hai ki dariya mein rawani kam hai
