meri hatheli mein likkha hua dikhai de

daman-e-arzu ke kinare sameTte

kab ek rang mein duniya ka haal Thahra hai

pabandiyon se apni nikalte wo pa na the

diwar-o-dar mein simTa ek lams kanpta hai

hamari jagti aankhon mein KHwab sa kya tha

koi aahaT koi sargoshi sada kuchh bhi nahin

be-talluq sare rishte kaun kis ka aashna

deta tha jo saya wo shajar kaT raha hai

jina hai KHub auron ki KHatir jiya karo

kis ne kaha kisi ka kaha tum kiya karo

ek aalam hai ye hairani ka jina kaisa

zaKHm ko phul kahen nauhe ko naghma samjhen

aisa hone nahin deta tha magar hone ko hai

kab ek maqam pe rukti hai sar-phiri hai hawa
