meri aankhon mein gham ki nishani nahin
pattharon ke piyalon mein pani nahin

main tujhe bhul kar bhi nahin bhulta
pyar sona hai sone ka pani nahin

meri apni bhi majburiyan hain bahut
main samandar hun pine ka pani nahin

mera chehra lakiron mein taqsim hai
aainon se mujhe bad-gumani nahin

sham ke baad bachchon se kaise milun
ab mere pas koi kahani nahin

mausamon ke lifafe badalte rahe
koi tahrir itni purani nahin

koi aaseb hai is hasin shahr par
sham raushan hai lekin suhani nahin
