noch kar phenk do baalon mein lagae hue phul
kaam ke rahte nahin kaam mein lae hue phul

main isi soch mein gum baitha hun sahil ke qarib
kahan thahrenge samundar mein bahae hue phul

is qadar gahra ta'alluq hai mera khushbu se
sar pe rakh leta hun panw tale aae hue phul

ek barik se kamre mein basera hai mera
kahan rakkhunga tere hath ke lae hue phul

ye hua un se mulaqat ka nuqsan mujhe
mere hathon se nikalte hi parae hue phul

wo mere pas se guzre hain bacha kar nazren
aur main rah gaya hathon mein uthae hue phul

jab wo yaad aate hain sawan ke dinon mein 'rahi'
chum leta hun main barish mein nahae hue phul
