tanha udas shab ke siwa koi bhi na tha

kis ka hai jurm kis ki KHata sochna paDa

kamre mein dhuan dard ki pahchan bana tha

zamin pe aag falak par dhuan dikhai diya

dhup chamki raat ki taswir pili ho gai

gum-shuda

posTar par ek KHabar

ehsas

ek waqia

nazm

chehron ke maile jismon ke jangal the har jagah

mujhe bhi fursat-e-nazzara-e-jamal na thi

tamam raat wo pahlu ko garm karta raha

maine kal toDa ek aaina to mahsus hua

KHushnuma diwar-o-dar ke KHwab hi dekha kiye
