abhi raushan hui hain mere ghar ki battiyan mujh se
hawa phir le na jae chhin kar parchhaiyan mujh se

karun aankhon se nam mitti khalaon phul raste mein
taqaza kar rahi hain khwahishon ki bastiyan mujh se

ye roz-o-shab ke hangame dar-o-diwar ke andar
bataun kya sulajhti hi nahin ab gutthiyan mujh se

kisi se muskura kar baat kar leta hun main jab bhi
na jaane kyon khafa rahti hain teri khidkiyan mujh se

ye tanhai ka mausam bhi dabe panw guzar jata
agar yaaden kisi ki bant letin talkhiyan mujh se

wo barfile badan ke sath milne jab bhi aata hai
chura leta hai mere khun ki sab garmiyan mujh se

parinda ek din ud jaega tutegi tahni bhi
yahi kahti hain phulon ki bikharti patiyan mujh se

akela main jo ghar lauta to phir kaise bataunga
khudai ka sabab puchhengi jab tanhaiyan mujh se
