jahan un ko un ke ishaaron ko dekha
wahin dil ki sazish ke maron ko dekha

main kuchh be-tuki baaten baaten suna dun
tadapte hue aabshaaron ko dekha

sitare bhi sone lage wo na aae
khilaf-e-tamanna sahaaron ko dekha

bhanwar ke fasane sunata raha hun
na sahil ko dekha na dhaaron ko dekha

jahan khud ko dekha khizan hi khizan hai
jahan un ko dekha bahaaron ko dekha

kiya ehtijaj is zamane ne us ka
kisi dhun mein jab be-qararon ko dekha

ye chhup-chhup ke yakja piyen 'daur'-o-zahid
kisi ne bhi in shahkaron ko dekha
