jahl ko aagahi banate hue
mil gaya raushni banate hue

kya qayamat kisi pe guzregi
aakhiri aadmi banate hue

kya hua tha zara pata to chale
waqt kya tha ghadi banate hue

kaise kaise bana diye chehre
apni be-chehragi banate hue

dasht ki wusaten badhati thin
meri aawargi banate hue

us ne nasur kar liya hoga
zakhm ko shaeri banate hue
