sahma sahma Dara sa rahta hai

sham se aankh mein nami si hai

koi aTka hua hai pal shayad

sham se aaj sans bhaari hai

zindagi yun hui basar tanha

tinka tinka kanTe toDe sari raat kaTai ki

ruke ruke se qadam ruk ke bar bar chale

khuli kitab ke safhe ulaTte rahte hain

gulon ko sunna zara tum sadaen bheji hain

kahin to gard uDe ya kahin ghubar dikhe

aisa KHamosh to manzar na fana ka hota

mujhe andhere mein be-shak biTha diya hota

os paDi thi raat bahut aur kohra tha garmaish par

koi KHamosh zaKHm lagti hai

phulon ki tarah lab khol kabhi
