har ek shakhs ka chehra udas lagta hai
ye shahr mera tabiat-shanas lagta hai

khila ho bagh mein jaise koi safed gulab
wo sada rang nigahon ko khas lagta hai

supurdagi ka nasha bhi ajib nashsha hai
wo sar se panw talak iltimas lagta hai

hawa mein khushbu-e-mausam kahin siwa to nahin
wo pas hai ye baid-az-qayas lagta hai
