aaina dekhen na hum aks hi apna dekhen
chamka jo tirgi mein ujala bikhar gaya
sahra ka safar tha to shajar kyun nahin aaya
dil-o-nigah ko viran kar diya maine
kaniz-e-waqt ko nilam kar diya sab ne
wo zabt tha ki aah na nikli zaban se
na koi phul hi rakha na aarzu na charagh
rabta kyun rakhun main dariya se
kuchh aise kam-nazar bhi musafir hamein mile
utri hui hai dhup badan ke hisar mein
