bhul jaana tha to phir apna banaya kyun tha
tum ne ulfat ka yaqin mujh ko dilaya kyun tha

ek bhatke hue rahi ko sahaara de kar
jhuti manzil ka nishan tum ne dikhaya kyun tha

khud hi tufan uthana tha mohabbat mein agar
dubne se meri kashti ko bachaya kyun tha

jis ki tabir ab ashkon ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin
khwab aisa meri aankhon ko dikhaya kyun tha

apne anjam pe ab kyun ho pasheman 'saba'
ek bedard se dil tum ne lagaya kyun tha
