ek muddat se adhura hai sarapa apna
sang-rezon ki tarah pesh-e-nazar rahte hain
zehn mein kuchh qayas rahta hai
sanwar jae bhi to munh dekhne darpan nahin milta
siyasat jab zarurat ho naya rishta banati hai
har ek Tahni pe gul murjha hua hai
abr ka sar pe saeban bhi to ho
ai suKHnawar tarah guman hun main
apne sae ko bhi asir bana
manzil-e-be-nishan se kya hasil
