rah-e-wafa mein hamein jitne ham-khayal mile
un hi ki aankhon mein hum ko kai sawal mile

wo log jin ki hamein fikr rahti hai har dam
wo jab kabhi bhi mile hum se hasb-e-haal mile

kisi gharane kisi zat se nahin matlab
ye hum bhi jaante hain dil mile khayal mile

main kis tarah se pareshan-haal unhen samjhun
wo apne husn-e-amal se to mala-mal mile

bahut se log mile hum ko apni duniya mein
koi na samjha bahut yun to ham-khayal mile

'kiran' wo pichhle dinon ki to baat aur hi thi
agarche milne ko yun kitne mah-o-sal mile
