kisi tarah bhi to wo rah par nahin aaya

main sochta hun agar is taraf wo aa jata

gae manzaron se ye kya uDa hai nigah mein

tumhaare baad raha kya hai dekhne ke liye

zara si der ko chamka tha wo sitara kahin

kahan kisi pe ye ehsan karne wala hun

usi tarah ke shab-o-roz hain wahi duniya

fasil-e-shahr-e-tamanna mein dar banate hue

munafiqat ka nisab paDh kar mohabbaton ki kitab likhna

guzarte waqt ki koi nishani sath rakhta hun

har phul hai hawaon ke ruKH par khila hua

shab-e-siyah pe wa raushni ka bab to ho

jab safar se lauT kar aane ki tayyari hui

apna diwana bana kar le jae

ye jabr bhi hai bahut iKHtiyar karte hue
