bahte pani ki tarah mauj-e-sada ki surat
su-e-manzil hain rawan log hawa ki surat

jada-e-zist pe insan ke aage pichhe
hadse ghumte rahte hain qaza ki surat

dard ko dil ke mitane ke liye main ab to
roz leta hun tera nam dawa ki surat

yaad rakh dahr ki diwar ke hatne par hi
dekh sakti hai koi aankh khuda ki surat

hashr ke roz se pahle bhi to main dawar-e-hashr
zindagi kat ke aaya hun saza ki surat

khoj is daur-e-kharabi mein koi khubi 'soz'
nasl-e-adam ke liye koi baqa ki surat
