mahakte reshmi bistar pe tuta kanch bikhra hai
mulaem narm takiye mein basi hai khurduri khushbu

nashili nind ke tukde hain kude-dan ki zinat
likhi hain qurmuzi pardon pe na-manus tahriren

sunahre phul-danon mein saji hain ajnabi aankhen
ye sab kaise hua aur kyun hua

kis khwab se puchhun
main kya sochun

meri sochen mere apne lahu mein dub jati hain
hai koi zakhm aisa jo musalsal khun ugalta hai

lahu ki dhaar girti hai
khayal-o-khwab ke upar
