duaen mangne walon ka intishaar hai kya
ye mah-o-sal ka udta hua ghubar hai kya

koi sabab hai ki yarab sukun hai itna
mujhe khabar hi nahin hai ki intizar hai kya

agar ho dur to qaem hai did ka rishta
agar qarib ho manzar to ikhtiyar hai kya

yahi ki aaj parindon se sham khali hai
yahi ki mausam-e-jaan ka bhi eatibar hai kya

bahut dinon se tabiat bujhi bujhi si hai
agar hai kuchh to ghadi-do-ghadi shumar hai kya
