talkhis ke badan mein tafsir bolti hai
takmil-e-arzu mein tadbir bolti hai

ye moajiza bhi dekha hum ne kalam-e-fan ka
chup ho agar musawwir taswir bolti hai

tazin-e-anjuman ke hum ne jo khwab dekhe
ab kirchiyon mein un ki tabir bolti hai

wo lab-kusha ho jis dam lagta hai har kisi ko
har lafz mein usi ki taqdir bolti hai

banta hai muflison ka wo gham-gusar lekin
andaz-e-guftugu mein jagir bolti hai

jazbon pe lakh koi pabandiyan laga de
izhaar mein unhi ki tasir bolti hai

khamosh hain qafas ke diwar-o-dar to kya hai
takra ke har qadam se zanjir bolti hai

jab aagahi ka azhdar dasta hai aadmi ko
mafhum nachte hain tahrir bolti hai
