dard ki aanch mein jalta hai ye ghar kya kije
khwab hoti hai tamanna ki sahar kya kije

hum bhi manus nahin dil ke andheron se abhi
taer-e-shab bhi hai khole hue par kya kije

dur manzil hai kadi dhup mein karna hai safar
kat gae rah mein jitne the shajar kya kije

wo gae waqt ki manind na lautega kabhi
ab luta kar ye wafaon ke guhar kya kije

be-gawahi ke bhanwar mein hai meri zat ki ab
aankh ki jhil bhi hoti nahin tar kya kije

barish-e-sang to be-wajh nahin hai 'abid'
aa gaya mujh ko wafaon ka hunar kya kije
