ek muddat se adhura hai sarapa apna
sang-rezon ki tarah pesh-e-nazar rahte hain
zehn mein kuchh qayas rahta hai
siyasat jab zarurat ho naya rishta banati hai
sanwar jae bhi to munh dekhne darpan nahin milta
har ek Tahni pe gul murjha hua hai
ai suKHnawar tarah guman hun main
abr ka sar pe saeban bhi to ho
apne sae ko bhi asir bana
manzil-e-be-nishan se kya hasil
