ab is jahan-e-barhana ka istiara hua

koi KHushi na koi ranj mustaqil hoga

aag ke sath main bahta hua pani sunna

nind ke bojh se palkon ko jhapakti hui aai

ki jaise koi musafir watan mein lauT aae

gum-shuda

pahle sahra se mujhe laya samundar ki taraf

dhup mein kaun kise yaad kiya karta hai

is bar rah-e-ishq kuchh itni tawil thi

ye kar-e-zindagi tha to karna paDa mujhe

jo sham hoti hai har roz haar jata hun
