nind un ki uchat ho gai hai
aankhon mein sharab ubal padi hai

bechain hai dil uchat hai dil
basti bas kar ujad gai hai

kaliyon ki sada bhi sunte jao
afsana qarib khatm hi hai

ek ghun sa laga hua hai ji ko
jaise koi chiz kho gai hai

gham itne uthaunga ki duniya
khud ko kahne lage ye aadmi hai

gum hosh nazar udas dil sard
'mahshar' ki ajib zindagi hai
