muqayyad zat ke andar nahin main
charagh-e-gumbad-e-be-dar nahin mein

mujhe bhi rasta de bahr-e-khilqat
kisi firaun ka lashkar nahin main

tu sustane ko thahra hai yaqinan
teri parwaz ka mehwar nahin main

rahe kaise musalsal ek mausam
kisi taswir ka manzar nahin main

tu jab chahe mujhe taskhir kar le
tere imkan se bahar nahin main

wo phir aaya hai 'rahat' sulh karne
koi kah de use ghar par nahin main
