ek ek lamha mujhe zist se be-zari hai
meri har sans sulagti hui chingari hai

kya hi auraq musawwar hain kitab-e-dil ke
khun-e-arman se har ek safhe pe gul-kari hai

zakhm hi zakhm hain aankhon se laga kar dil tak
soch mein hun ki ye kis qism ki dildari hai

ye simatte hue sae ye larazte dar-o-baam
ek nai subh ke elan ki tayyari hai

har qadam par nazar aate hain salibon ke sutun
ye koi khwab hai ya aalam-e-bedari hai

kyun uthen panw junun ke su-e-manzil 'sadiq'
ek ek gam salasil ki giran-bari hai
