dil mein ek taswir chhupi thi aan basi hai aankhon mein
shayad hum ne aaj ghazal si baat likhi hai aankhon mein

jaise ek harijan ladki mandir ke darwaze par
sham diyon ki thaal sajae jhank rahi hai aankhon mein

is rumal ko kaam mein lao apni palken saf karo
maila maila chand nahin hai dhul jami hai aankhon mein

padhta ja ye manzar-nama zard azim pahadon ka
dhup khili palkon ke upar barf jami hai aankhon mein

main ne ek nowel likkha hai aane wali subh ke nam
kitni raaton ka jaga hun nind bhari hai aankhon mein
