ab ke baras hun jitna tanha
pahle kahan tha utna tanha

duniya ek samundar jis mein
main hun koi jazira tanha

zist safar hai tanhai ka
aana tanha jaana tanha

us ko batao jism se kat kar
rah nahin sakta saya tanha

uf ye mauj-e-tufan-e-alam
hae dil ka safina tanha

jis ko chaha jaan se badh kar
aakhir us ne chhoda tanha

ghar se bahar niklo kisi din
itna bhi kya rahna tanha

ab wo kahin aur main hun kahin
umr kategi tanha tanha

'kashir' ki hai apni hi duniya
hoga kahin par baitha tanha
