main baam-o-dar pe jo ab saen saen likhta hun
tamam shahar ki sadkon ki raen likhta hun

tawil galiyon mein khamoshiyan ugi hain magar
har ek dariche pe ja kar sadaen likhta hun

safed dhup ke tude hi jan pe girte hain
inhi udas gharon ki kathaen main likhta hun

hawa ke dosh pe raqsan nahif patton par
badalte mausamon ki ittilaen likhta hun

main jhunjhlahaton par zabt kar nahin sakta
sadak pe chalte hue daen baen likhta hun

tere khulus ne mujh se wo dushmani ki hai
tere liye to main ab bad-duaen likhta hun
