apni tadbir na taqdir pe rona aaya

aag ek aur laga denge hamare aansu

bahut hi dil-nashin aawaz-e-pa thi

zanjir-e-junun kuchh aur khanak hum raqs-e-tamanna dekhenge

na mandir mein sanam hote na masjid mein KHuda hota

zindagi muKHtasar mili thi hamein

karna hai shairi agar naushad

ek be-qarar dil se mulaqat kijiye

aabaadiyon mein dasht ka manzar bhi aaega

samne uske ek bhi na chali
