ganw rafta rafta bante jate hain ab shahr

be-nam dayaron se hum log bhi ho aae

kunj-e-tanhai basae hijr ki lazzat mein hun

bacha tha ek jo wo rabta bhi TuT gaya

rukun to rukta hai chalne pe sath chalta hai

hum zamin-zadon ko aasman bana jaana

wo jin ki chhanw mein pale baDe hue

tez aandhi ne faqat ek saeban rahne diya

in bala ki aandhiyon mein ek shajar baqi rahe
