miTTi tere mahakne se mujhko guman hai
jaise ki ek frame ho taswir ke baghair
kyun mil rahi hai un ko saza chiKHti rahi
rahat ke waste na rifaqat ke waste
tujhko hi sochta rahun fursat nahin rahi
boli lagi mata-e-hunar ki to ahl-e-fan
kuchh marke hamare bhi hum tak hi rah gae
faqih-e-shahr se kuchh KHas dushmani to nahin
in se aawaz-e-karb aati hai
apne liye bhi koi riayat rawa nahin
