ek pal kahin ruke the safar yaad aa gaya

jali hain dard ki shaMein magar andhera hai

wo KHud apna daman baDhane lage

wo na aaega yahan wo nahin aane wala

kaise in sachche jazbon ki ab us tak tafhim karun

mashwara kis ne diya tha ki masihai kar

mahakte lafzon mein shamil hai rang-o-bu kis ki

bichhaDna mujhse to KHwabon mein silsila rakhna

KHuda kare ki ye miTTi bikhar bhi jae ab

reza reza sa bhala mujh mein bikharta kya he

ye sauda ishq ka aasan sa he

tamam shahr mein us jaisa KHasta-haal na tha

uske honTon pe bad-dua bhi nahin

jaisi KHwahish hoti he kab hota he

is zamin aasman ke the hi nahin
