zakhm kha ke bhi muskuraate hain
hum hain patthar bikhar na pate hain

koi pahchan hi na le hum ko
rang mein sham hum milate hain

khwab ka intizar khatm hua
aankh ko nind se jagate hain

sham ke waqt hijrati patte
sabz pedon ka gham manate hain

'asima' raushni bhare alfaz
apne andar hi jhilmilate hain
