kya sab us ne sun kar an-suna kya
wo khud mein is qadar tha mubtala kya

main hun guzra hua sa ek lamha
mere haq mein dua kya bad-dua kya

kiran aai kahan se raushni ki
andhere mein koi jugnu jala kya

musafir sab palat kar aa rahe hain
wahan se band hai har rasta kya

main ek muddat se khud hi gum-shuda hun
bataun aap ko apna pata kya

ye mahfil do dhadon mein bat gai hai
zara puchho hai kis ka muddaa kya

mohabbat rahguzar hai kahkashan si
so is mein ibtida kya intiha kya
