wahi jo rah ka patthar tha be-tarash bhi tha

ajib shaKHs hai patthar se par banata hai

dard ki lai ko baDha do ki main zinda hun abhi

mil bhi jata jo aab aab-e-baqa kya karte

zehn zinda hai magar apne sawalat ke sath

palak jhapakne mein kuchh KHwab TuT jate hain

lamha-dar-lamha guzarta hi chala jata hai

wo daeron se jo bahar na aa sake tanwir

teri yaadon ki kahani to nahin hai tanwir

riwayaton ko salibon se kar diya aazad
