khud apna intizar bhi
hum apne mein qarar bhi

sifar ka reg-zar bhi
magar mera dayar bhi

lahu mera sukut bhi
junun ka shahkar bhi

safar mein marhala bana
dawam ka hisar bhi

nazar utha ke kar diya
khala ke dil pe war bhi

tarashi hum ne ruh jab
utha tha kuchh ghubar bhi

guzar chuke hain bar-ha
khuda ke aar-par bhi

'riyaz' mawara to ho
ki ho tera shumar bhi
