wo log jo zinda hain wo mar jaenge ek din

daman mein aansuon ka zaKHira na kar abhi

main khil nahin saka ki mujhe nam nahin mila

mera akela KHuda yaad aa raha hai mujhe

ye kaun aaya shabistan ke KHwab pahne hue

badan churaate hue ruh mein samaya kar

hain sehar-e-musawwir mein qayamat nahin karte

soch mein Duba hua hun aks apna dekh kar

mujhe KHabar thi mera intizar ghar mein raha

safar ki dhup mein chehre sunahre kar liye humne

aag ho dil mein to aankhon mein dhanak paida ho

jaan pyari thi magar jaan se be-zari thi

ek yaad ki maujudgi sah bhi nahin sakte

wahi aankhon mein aur aankhon se poshida bhi rahta hai

mujhko meri shikast ki dohri saza mili

panw mara tha pahaDon pe to pani nikla

main phir se ho jaunga tanha ek din

tujhe KHabar hai tujhe yaad kyun nahin karte

chhup ke milne aa jae raushni ki jurat kya

jo tere dil mein hai wo baat mere dhyan mein hai

shahr ka shahr hua jaan ka pyasa kaisa

zinda rahne ke tazkire hain bahut

yun mere pas se ho kar na guzar jaana tha

KHak nind aae agar dida-e-bedar mile

log the jin ki aankhon mein andesha koi na tha

dard purana aansu mange aansu kahan se laun

raat apne KHwab ki qimat ka andaza hua

maut ne parda karte karte parda chhoD diya

abhi nazar mein Thahar dhyan se utar ke na ja

main ek raat mohabbat ke saeban mein tha

main wo hun jis pe abr ka saya paDa nahin

ye kis ne bharam apni zamin ka nahin rakkha

wahshat diwaron mein chunwa rakkhi hai

KHwab ko din ki shikaston ka mudawa na samajh

hamla-awar koi aqab se hai

wo dukh jo soe hue hain unhen jaga dunga

yahin kahin pe kabhi shola-kar main bhi tha

sab kuchh na kahin sog manane mein chala jae

hamari tabahi mein kuchh us ka ehsan bhi hai

zamanon ke KHarabon mein utar kar dekh leta hun

wo aag hun ki nahin chain ek aan mujhe

ek raat hum aise milen jab dhyan mein sae na hon

dard ke itab le dost use shumar kar

wo saKHi hai to kisi roz bula kar le jae

main tere zulm dikhata hun apna matam karne ke liye

main wahi dasht hamesha ka tarasne wala

ek din zehn mein aaseb phirega aisa

miTTi thi KHafa mauj uTha le gai hum ko

raat nadida balaon ke asar mein hum the

KHamushi chheD rahi hai koi nauha apna
