main ek ret ka paikar tha aur bikhar bhi gaya
jal raha hun to ajab rang o saman hai mera
tu apne shahr-e-tarab se na puchh haal mera
pattharon par wadiyon mein naqsh-e-pa mera bhi hai
mizha pe KHwab nahin intizar sa kuchh hai
nae paikar nae sanche mein Dhalna chahta hun main
dekh ke arzan lahu surKHi-e-manzar KHamosh
dasht marub hai kitna meri virani se
sarab-e-mani-o-mafhum mein bhaTakte hain
aks jal jaenge aaine bikhar jaenge
bujh gae manzar ufuq par har nishan maddham hua
hum wo aawara ki jo dasht na ghar ke liye hain
har rang-e-tarab mausam o manzar se nikala
kiya gardishon ke hawale use chaak par rakh diya
raat aati hai to taqon mein jalate hain charagh
