bikhar ke phul fazaon mein bas chhoD gaya

anjam ko pahunchunga main anjam se pahle

aaj zara si der ko apne andar jhank kar dekha tha

tha intizar manaenge mil ke diwali

mere apne andar ek bhanwar tha jis mein

hamari muskurahaT par na jaana

mumkin hai ki sadiyon bhi nazar aae na suraj

gahri sochen lambe din aur chhoTi raaten

main apni zat ki tanhai mein muqayyad tha

na thi zamin mein wusat meri nazar jaisi

na jaane bahar bhi kitne aaseb muntazir hon

gaya tha mangne KHushbu main phul se lekin

badan ki andhi gali to ja-e-aman Thahri

wo jo pyasa lagta tha sailab-zada tha

ye aur baat ki rang-e-bahaar kam hoga
