puchhta kaun hai darta hai tu ai yar abas
qatl karne se mere hai tujhe inkar abas

kya meri aankh adam bich lagi thi ai charkh
kiya us khwab se tu ne mujhe bedar abas

wasl hi us ka dawa hai meri bimari ko
aur kuchh karte hain tadbir ye gham-khwar abas

yar tanha hai phir aisa nahin milne ka waqt
sharm hoti hai meri mana-e-guftar abas

aur bhi un ne 'bayan' zulm kuchh afzud kiya
kiya us shokh se tin ishq ka izhaar abas
