gosha-e-dil ki KHamoshi ka tamannai main

lete hain log sans bhi ab ehtiyat se

mujhe bas itni shikayat hai marne walon se

manzil hai kaThin dil bahut aaram-talab hai

teri talash to kya teri aas bhi na rahe

hazar chehre hain maujud aadmi ghaeb

baiTha hi raha subh se mein dhup Dhale tak

har dam teri shabih thi aankhon ke samne

ye bhi sach hai ki nahin hai koi rishta tujhse

sab ki tarah tu ne bhi mere aib nikale

huzur-e-husn ye dil kasa-e-gadai hai

shak apni hi zat pe hone lagta hai

usko KHabar hui to badal jaega wo rang

yun tark-e-talluq ki qasam khae hue hon

chhup chhup ke kahan tak tere didar milenge
