junun ko bhi arz-e-haal ka ehtimam karna sikha rahi hun
main dil ki dhadkan ko shor-e-gham se kalam karna sikha rahi hun

sikha rahi hun charagh ko ye ki jal ke bujhne ka husn kya hai
hawaon ko raushni ka main ehtiram karna sikha rahi hun

wo zindagi jis ke naz uthae na jaane kis lamha rukh badal le
isi liye to main apni subhon ko sham karna sikha rahi hun

nae mafahim rah paen nae maani safar pe niklen
so harf ko shahr-e-agahi mein qayam karna sikha rahi hun

samundaron ke safar mein aakhir ye kin jaziron ki raushni hai
nai zaminon ke raaz sahil ko aam karna sikha rahi hun

ye daere zawiye ye qausen ye nok-e-parkar ka hunar hain
isi hunar se tamam ko na-tamam karna sikha rahi hun

na aah koi na koi aansu ye dard ki bazm hai so dil ko
bade saliqe se jashn ka intizam karna sikha rahi hun
