aks-e-khushbu hun bikharne se na roke koi
aur bikhar jaun to mujh ko na samete koi

kanp uthti hun main ye soch ke tanhai mein
mere chehre pe tera nam na padh le koi

jis tarah khwab mere ho gae reza reza
us tarah se na kabhi tut ke bikhre koi

main to us din se hirasan hun ki jab hukm mile
khushk phulon ko kitabon mein na rakkhe koi

ab to is rah se wo shakhs guzarta bhi nahin
ab kis ummid pe darwaze se jhanke koi

koi aahat koi aawaz koi chap nahin
dil ki galiyan badi sunsan hain aae koi
