jo khas-e-badan tha jala bahut kai nikhaton ki talash mein
main tamam logon se mil chuka teri qurbaton ki talash mein

teri aankh se meri aankh tak faqat ek manzar-e-khak hai
wahi sham-e-tira-sarisht si mili muddaton ki talash mein

koi khwab sar se pare raha ye safar sarab-e-safar raha
main shanakht apni ganwa chuka gai suraton ki talash mein

ye jo jhankti hai nafas nafas koi mauj-e-khun si uthi hui
bane zindagi ki na qatl-gah kahin wahshaton ki talash mein

mere zakhm ab tu siyega kya mere aansuon ko piyega kya
tere zaiqe hi badal gae nai lazzaton ki talash mein
