kawish-e-na-mo'tabar ko mo'atabar karne lage
log apni zat ke andar safar karne lage

walihana tarz aashufta-sari ke bawajud
meri wahshat par nazar shorida-sar karne lage

raushni itni ki aankhon mein andhera chha gaya
irtiqa aisa ki faqon par basar karne lage

ek zara jis ne shuur-e-zindagi paya ki bas
hadsat-e-gham use zer-o-zabar karne lage

hum zamin ko bhi 'ziya' mahsur kar sakte nahin
jab ki aaj insan khalaon mein safar karne lage
