ye zindagi saza ke siwa aur kuchh nahin

mera KHwab-e-tamanna saat-e-bedar jaisa hai

kisi bhi moD pe roka na gumrahi se mujhe

na gul khile na shagufon pe tazgi aai

is sadi ka jab kabhi KHatm-e-safar dekhenge log

sulagti ret pe chalna paDe KHuda na kare

tere ishaara-e-abru ka ehtiram karen

aib jo mujh mein hain mere hain hunar tera hai

nigah tur pe hai aur jamal sine mein

bin mausam ke pani barse sawan sawan dhup

hai samundar samne pyase bhi hain pani bhi hai

tum pasina mat kaho hai jaan-fishani ka libas

jalne ka hunar sirf fatile ke liye tha

meri zaban ki ibarat hai guftugu teri

hasrat-e-sikka-e-baKHil na kar
