sahra ko dekhta hun kabhi apne ghar ko main
mushkil ye aa padi hai ki jaun kidhar ko main

badle dil-o-nigah to har shai badal gai
hairat se dekhta hun tere baam-o-dar ko main

ghairon ka jam bharte ho aankhen bacha ke kyon
pahchanta hun khub tumhaari nazar ko main

ab kaisa gham ki ho chuka idrak-e-zindagi
muddat hui ki bhul gaya chaaragar ko main

yun laghzish-e-qadam ke bahane hazar the
ilzam de raha hun khud apni nazar ko main

pahchanta nahin hun nuqush-e-qadam abhi
har roz dekhta hun teri rahguzar ko main

'ahmad' khizan ke daur mein khilta hai gul kahin
laun kahan se dhund kar ahl-e-nazar ko main
