apne jauhar se siwa bhi koi qimat mange

tere intizar mein kya mila tere etibar ne kya diya

ab bhi guzre hue logon ka asar bolta hai

hum musafir hain ki maqsud-e-safar jaante hain

safar mein hain to hamein yaad baam-o-dar ki hai

shamil-e-karwan to hum bhi hain

is hujum-e-be-aman mein koi apna bhi to ho

jo mujh pe qarz hai isko utar jaun main

bahte pani mein jo surat Thahre

sare mausam hain mehrban se kuchh

giraft-e-saya-e-diwar se nikal aaya

aaKHir-e-shab bhi kisi KHwab ki ummid mein hun

kabhi uDo to sahi tum uDan se upar

tere karam ka mere dasht pe jo saya hua

sar-e-shaKH-e-talab zanjir nikli
