wo ghir ke aaya ghaTaon ki tirgi ki tarah

puchho mujhe ai ham-nafasan kaun hun kya hun

rahon ke unch-nich zara dekh-bhaal ke

nawah-e-shauq mein hai ek dayar-e-nikhat-e-gul

numayan aur bhi ruKH teri be-ruKHi mein rahe

pheri wala

zahr ka safar

raat

sham

subh

shahr ke aabaad sannaTon ki wahshat dekh kar

main sargiran tha hijr ki raaton ke qarz se

chhalki har mauj-e-badan se husn ki dariya-dili

man dhan sab qurban kiya ab sar ka sauda baqi hai

do kinare hon to sail-e-znidagi dariya bane
