dil ki maujon ki tadap meri sada mein aae
daere karb ke phaile to hawa mein aae

mere hathon hi ne aaina dikhaya tha mujhe
kitne mushkil the taqaze jo dua mein aae

hum gharibi mein bhi mear-e-safar rakhte hain
girte padte hi sahi apni ana mein aae

in se hum sher ki tasir badha lete hain
kaise lahje tere aanchal ki hawa mein aae

wo to pahchan ki mauhum nazar rakhta hai
hum yunhi samne zakhmon ki qaba mein aae

aakhiri sher ki manzil bhi kadi hai 'saqib'
soch ke kitne safar zehn-e-rasa mein aae
