dil ajab gumbad ki jis mein ek kabutar bhi nahin
itna viran to mazaron ka muqaddar bhi nahin

dubti jati hain mitti mein badan ki kashtiyan
dekhne mein ye zamin koi samundar bhi nahin

jitne hangame the sukhi tahniyon se jhad gae
ped par phal bhi nahin aangan mein patthar bhi nahin

khushk tahni par parinda hai ki patta hai 'adim'
aashiyana bhi nahin jis ka koi par bhi nahin

jitni pyari hain meri dharti ko zanjiren 'adim'
utna pyara to kisi dulhan ko zewar bhi nahin
