gard ude ya koi aandhi hi chale
ye umas to kisi unwan tale

ang par zakhm liye khak male
aan baithe hain tere mahal tale

apna ghar shahr-e-khamoshan sa hai
kaun aaega yahan sham dhale

dil-e-parwana pe kya guzregi
jab talak dhup bujhe shama jale

rup ki jot hai kala jadu
ek chhalawa ki farishton ko chhale

daldalon mein bhi kanwal khilte hain
nakhl-e-ummid bahar-taur bhale

apne hi rain-baseron ki taraf
laut aae hain sabhi sham dhale

mai-kade mein to nasha batta hai
kaun yan jaanche bure aur bhale

raushni dekh ke chundhiya jaen
jo andheron mein badhe aur pale

khar to saif banega gul ki
ye bhale hi kisi gulchin ko khale

raat baqi hai abhi to 'parwez'
baada sar-josh rahe daur chale
