har ek khwab ki tabir thodi hoti hai
mohabbaton ki ye taqdir thodi hoti hai

kabhi kabhi to juda be-sabab bhi hote hain
sada zamane ki taqsir thodi hoti hai

palak pe thahre hue ashk se kaha main ne
har ek dard ki tashhir thodi hoti hai

safar ye karte hain ek dil se dusre dil tak
dukhon ke panw mein zanjir thodi hoti hai

dua ko hath uthao to dhyan mein rakhna
har ek lafz mein tasir thodi hoti hai
