apni thokar se jo ek war kiya hai main ne
dekh kya rasta hamwar kiya hai main ne

bhurbhure jism ki mitti ne bahut khwar kiya
apne hone pe jab israr kiya hai main ne

main yunhi aaya nahin bagh-e-adan ki jaanib
ek sahra tha jise par kiya hai main ne

ai shab-e-khwab ye hangam-e-tahayyur kya hai
khud ko gar nind se bedar kiya hai main ne

wo koi aur na tha mere alawa 'gauhar'
panw rakh kar jise mismar kiya hai main ne
