rah-e-firaq kisi taur mukhtasar kije
jo ho sake to kabhi khwab se guzar kije

hamare dil mein bhi manzar ajib sair ka hai
na aa saken to bulandi se hi nazar kije

yahan pe chaaron taraf hai suragh raston ka
par ikhtiyar koi rah dekh kar kije

ye shahar-o-koh-o-bayaban-o-dasht-o-dariya the
ab aage khwab hai ruk jaiye basar kije

bane the khak se hum ko qayam karna tha
hawa hain aap uda kijiye safar kije

hum apne ahd-e-tamanna pe ab bhi qaem hain
zara sharik-e-tamanna ko bhi khabar kije
