faza ka habs shagufon ko bas kya dega
badan-darida kisi ko libas kya dega

ye dil ki qahat-e-ana se gharib thahra hai
meri zaban ko zar-e-iltimas kya dega

jo de saka na pahadon ko barf ki chadar
wo meri banjh zamin ko kapas kya dega

ye shahr yun bhi to dahshat bhara nagar hai yahan
dilon ka shor hawa ko hiras kya dega

wo zakhm de ke mujhe hausla bhi deta hai
ab is se badh ke tabiat-shanas kya dega

jo apni zat se bahar na aa saka ab tak
wo pattharon ko mata-e-hawas kya dega

wo mere ashk bujhaega kis tarah 'mohsin'
samundaron ko wo sahra ki pyas kya dega
