ujDe nagar mein sham kabhi kar liya karen
hone wala tha ek hadsa rah gaya
manzar ajab tha ashkon ko roka nahin gaya
khiDkiyon par malgaje sae se lahrane lage
raat kafi lambi thi dur tak tha tanha main
bahut dhoka kiya KHud ko magar kya kar liya maine
din ko the hum ek tasawwur raat ko ek KHwab the
koi bhi shaKHs na hangama-e-makan mein mila
pau phaTi ek taza kahani mili
apni pahchan koi zamane mein rakh
aandhiyon ka KHwab adhura rah gaya
dhire dhire sham ka aaankhon mein har manzar bujha
duniya kya hai barf ki ek almari hai
chhanw ki shakl dhup ki rangat badal gai
yaad rakhte kis tarah qisse kahani log the
