shab ko aankhon mein Thaharte koi kab tak dekhe
badan ko jaan se juda ho ke zinda rahna hai
kisi KHamoshi ka zahr jab ek mukalme ki tarah se chup tha
teri samt jaane ke raston mein zinda hun
wahi mohtaram rahe shahr mein jo tafawuton mein lage rahe
sochon se in KHwabon ki zanjiren kab utrengi
hunuz raat hai jalna paDega usko bhi
koi hai jo gham nahin jhelta kise har nafas mein sukun hai
jhil mein bahte phul kanwal ke jhuTe the
samajh liye bhi jo haalat kuchh nahin hoga
yaqin ke baad ye dekha ki phir guman TuTe
ana ki qaid se nikle muqabla to kare
achchha sa iKHtitam bhi tum se na ho saka
