kai aawazon ki aawaz hun main
ghazal ke waste eazaz hun main

kai harfon se mil kar ban raha hun
bajae lafz ke alfaz hun main

meri aawaz mein surat hai meri
ki apne saz ki aawaz hun main

bahut fitri tha tera harf-e-inkar
tera gham-khwar hun dam-saz hun main

kahin to harf-e-akhir hun main 'akbar'
kisi ka nuqta-e-aghaz hun main
