sham tak phir rang khwabon ka bikhar jaega kya
raegan hi aaj ka din bhi guzar jaega kya

dhundna hai ghup-andhere mein mujhe ek shakhs ko
puchhna suraj zara mujh mein utar jaega kya

manta hun ghut raha hai dam tera is habs mein
gar yahi jine ki surat hai to mar jaega kya

ain mumkin hai baja hon tere andeshe magar
dekh kar ab apne sae ko bhi dar jaega kya

soch le parwaz se pahle zara phir soch le
sath le kar ye shikasta baal-o-par jaega kya

ek hijrat jism ne ki ek hijrat ruh ne
itna gahra zakhm aasani se bhar jaega kya
