taqdir ke darbar mein alqab paDe the

apne aansu hain tumhaare nahin ro sakta main

ek teri yaad ke sahaare par

ek talwar hai talwar bhi do dhaari hai

yun dil o jaan ki tauqir mein masruf tha main

main bhi huzur-e-yar bahut der tak raha

mera qarza ada kare koi

kisi bhi rah pe rukna na faisla kar ke

mere bhi kuchh gile the magar raat ho gai

lutf duniya to faqat dida-e-namnak mein hai

main apni aankh bhi KHwabon se dho nahin paya

hadse pyar mein aise bhi to ho jate hain

be-maza thi jo bad-maza kar di

jawab jis ka nahin koi wo sawal bana

main sharmsar hun apne zamir ke aage
