mujhe bujha de mera daur mukhtasar kar de
magar diye ki tarah mujh ko mo'atabar kar de

bikharte tutte rishton ki umr hi kitni
main teri sham hun aa ja meri sahar kar de

judaiyon ki ye raaten to katni hongi
kahaniyon ko koi kaise mukhtasar kar de

tere khayal ke hathon kuchh aisa bikhra hun
ki jaisa bachcha kitaben idhar-udhar kar de

'wasim' kis ne kaha tha ki yun ghazal kah kar
ye phul jaisi zamin aansuon se tar kar de
