ashk in sipiyon mein bhar jaen
to wahan dubne guhar jaen

khamushi ab teri wazahat ko
tere mimbar se hum utar jaen

dasht sab ke liye nahin wahshat
kuchh talabgar apne ghar jaen

raste mere pas baith rahen
fasle dur se guzar jaen

titliyan rang jhad len apne
phir tere hont par utar jaen

hum bhi dariya ke na-dahinda hain
kashtiyan chhod kar kidhar jaen

raegani pe fatiha kahne
hum suhulat ki qabr par jaen

zoam shoridgi ke mare hue
lafz aawaz par utar jaen

aaj bas khal-o-khad uthae chalen
khwahishen aainon mein dhar jaen

tu koi mazhaka nahin hai ki hum
dastaras mein khuda ki mar jaen

na-rasai ki chah mein 'arish'
aabla-pa mere safar jaen
