ho aankh agar zinda guzarti hai na kya kya
yun aab mein bujhte hue shoale ki sada kya

ai tu ki yaqin hai tujhe shishe ke badan par
ehsas ki dastak par kabhi kan dhara kya

diwar tahi naqsh har ek rang se mayus
kaghaz ke liye mu-e-qalam sang bacha kya

mahfuz hamin reg-hisaron mein hue the
kya warna samundar ka guzar mauj-e-hawa kya

wo shakhs mere sae se rakhta hai talluq
mera hi yaqin tut gaya us ka gaya kya

us barf ke insan ki takhliq meri thi
is dhup ki nagri mein mile us ka pata kya

khud tir hadon mein hon abhi sach hai ye 'manzur'
us chashm-giraftar ko manunga khuda kya
