kahne ko to har baat kahi tere muqabil
lekin wo fasana jo mere dil pe raqam hai

mahrumi ka ehsas mujhe kis liye hota
hasil hai jo mujh ko kahan duniya ko baham hai

ya tujh se bichhadne ka nahin hausla mujh mein
ya tere taghaful mein bhi andaz-e-karam hai

thodi si jagah mujh ko bhi mil jae kahin par
wahshat tere kuche mein mere shahar se kam hai

ai ham-safaro tute na sanson ka tasalsul
ye qafila-e-shauq bahut tez-qadam hai
