bahut kuchh muntazir ek baat ka tha
ki lamha lakh imkanat ka tha

bacha li thi ziya andar ki us ne
wahi ek aashna ab raat ka tha

rafaqat kya kahan ke mushtarak khwab
ki sara silsila shubhat ka tha

bagule us ke sar par chikhte the
magar wo aadmi chup zat ka tha

hinai hath ka manzar tha 'bani'
ki tabinda waraq isbaat ka tha
