agar chubhti hui baaton se Darna paD gaya to
daman-e-gul mein kahin Khaar chhupa dekhte hain
honTon ko phul aankh ko baada nahin kaha
makan se dur kahin la-makan se hota hai
misr firaun ki tahwil mein aaya hua hai
maujud jo nahin wahi dekha bana hua
guzar chuka hai jo lamha wo irtiqa mein hai
banai hai teri taswir maine Darte hue
tum intizar ke lamhe shumar mat karna
har taraf hadd-e-nazar tak silsila pani ka hai
diya nahin hai mujhe chhup-chhupa ke rone tak
ek aansu mein tere gham ka ahata karte
waqt be-waqt ye poshak meri tak mein hai
meri nazar mera apna mushahida hai kahan
hai nind abhi aankh mein pal bhar mein nahin hai
