lab pe takrim-e-tamanna-e-subuk-pai hai
pas-e-diwar wahi silsila-paimai hai

takhta-e-lala ki har sham-e-farozan jaane
kis bhulawe mein mujhe dekh ke lahrai hai

khak-dar-khak chhupi hai meri aankhon ki chamak
jis kharabe mein teri anjuman-arai hai

apne hi panw ki aawaz se dar jata hun
main hun aur rah-guzar-e-besha-e-tanhai hai

phir sar-e-subh kisi dard ke dar wa karne
dhan ke khet se ek mauj-e-hawa aai hai
