phir meri aas baDha kar mujhe mayus na kar
is jahan mein to apna saya bhi
shair unki dosti ka ab bhi dam bharte hain aap
tujhse wafa na ki to kisi se wafa na ki
har taraf ek muhib sannaTa
main sach to bolta hun magar ai KHuda-e-harf
zindagi ki baat sun kar kya kahen
raushni mein apni shaKHsiyat pe jab bhi sochna
tariki mein lipTi hui pur-haul KHamoshi
suraj ko ye gham hai ki samundar bhi hai payab
apne kisi amal pe nadamat nahin mujhe
hum bhi hain kisi kahf ke ashab ke manind
badan pe pairahan-e-KHak ke siwa kya hai
sirf zinda rahne ko zindagi nahin kahte
main sochta hun is liye shayad main zinda hun
