samajh raha tha main ye din guzarne wala nahin
khula ki koi bhi lamha thaharne wala nahin

koi bhi rasta kisi samt ko nahin jata
koi safar meri takmil karne wala nahin

hawa ki abr ki koshish to puri puri hai
magar dhuwen ki tarah main bikharne wala nahin

main apne-ap ko bas ek bar dekhunga
phir is ke baad kisi se bhi darne wala nahin

charagh-e-jaan liye kis dasht mein khada hun main
koi bhi qafila yan se guzarne wala nahin

main kya karun koi taswir gar adhuri hai
main apne rang to ab us mein bharne wala nahin
