bahut be-kar mausam hai magar kuchh kaam karna hai
ki taza zakhm milne tak purana zakhm bharna hai

abhi sada waraq par nam tera likh ke baitha hun
abhi is mein mahak aani hai titli ne utarna hai

badhe jo habs to shakhen hila dena ki ab hum ko
hawa ke sath jina hai hawa ke sath marna hai

mabaada us ko diqqat ho nishane tak pahunchne mein
so main ne phul se diwar ke rakhne ko bharna hai

yahi ek shaghl rakhna hai aziyyat ke dinon mein bhi
kisi ko bhul jaana hai kisi ko yaad karna hai

koi chehra na ban paya muqaddar ki lakiron se
so ab apni hatheli mein mujhe khud rang bharna hai

koi rasta mile kyunkar mere pa-e-khajalat ko
yahan to panw dharna bhi koi ilzam dharna hai

wo har lamha dua dete hain lambi umr ki 'tabish'
mujhe lagta hai pyaron ko bhi rukhsat main ne karna hai
