bhara hua teri yaadon ka jam kitna tha
sahar ke waqt taqaza-e-sham kitna tha

rukh-e-zawal pe rang-e-dawam kitna tha
ki ghat ke bhi mera mah-e-tamam kitna tha

tha tere naz ko kitna meri ana ka khayal
mera ghurur bhi tera ghulam kitna tha

jo pau phati to har ek dastan tamam hui
ajab ki un ke liye ehtimam kitna tha

unhin ko yaad kiya jab to kuchh na yaad aaya
wo log jin ka zamane mein nam kitna tha

abhi shajar se judai ke din na aae the
paka hua tha wo phal phir bhi kham kitna tha

wahan to koi na tha ek apne gham ke siwa
mere makan pe magar izhdiham kitna tha
