kahan se laen hikayat-e-nau kahan hai naya
mata-e-zor-e-bayan hi se ye jahan hai naya

ulajhta rahta hai kohna-nuqush-e-dauran se
mere wajud mein ek shakhs jo nihan hai naya

abhi nuqush mitae hain dil ke patthar se
meri jabin pe phir zakhm ka nishan hai naya

har ek shai pe wahi gard hai udasi ki
tum aa gae ho to lagta hai ye jahan hai naya
