aaj kuchh aise shoale bhaDke barish ke har qatre se

tanhai ki dulhan apni mang sajae baiThi hai

ek baras bhi abhi nahin guzra

KHushi ki aarzu kya dil mein Thahre

wo KHud hi apni aag mein jal kar fana hua

hum aaj kuchh hasin sarabon mein kho gae

mahsus ho raha hai ki main KHud safar mein hun

kaif yun aaghosh-e-fan mein zehn ko nind aa gai

KHuda malum kis aawaz ke pyase parinde

kaif kahan tak tum KHud ko be-dagh rakhkhoge

chaman mein shiddat-e-dard-e-numud se ghunche

sard jazbe bujhe bujhe chehre

aaj phir shaKH se gire patte

tanhaiyon ko saunp ke tarikiyon ka zahr
