ho ke aaina muqabil bhi raha rad ki nahin

har chand ki lae the jigar chir ke moti

is ek Dar mein ki aaKHir ko TuT jaega

baal shishe mein kahin baal se main hota hun

hum ki the KHush-fahm din ki be-panahi dekh kar

dil-gawara chubhan hi marti hai

nam-e-tarsil ke soton ko chhupae rakkha

ek rang sa chhalka tha magar bas na aai

hikayaton se fasanon se ret uDti hai

kahan sambhalte hain bahte hue bahaw mein log
