apne aansu hain tumhaare nahin ro sakta main
aaj aankhon se sitare nahin ro sakta main

ek taklif ka dariya hai badan mein lekin
baith kar is ke kinare nahin ro sakta main

main hun majzub mere dil ki haqiqat hai alag
lakh hote hon khasare nahin ro sakta main

jism hai ruh ki hiddat mein pighalne wala
hun sharabor sharare nahin ro sakta main

main tamasha hun tamashai hain chaaron jaanib
sharm hai sharm ke mare nahin ro sakta main

bad-guman hone laga hai ye tayaqqun ka jahan
mujh ko afsos hai pyare nahin ro sakta main

zarre zarre mein qayamat ka saman hai 'sahil'
ek hi dil ke sahaare nahin ro sakta main
