tha pas-e-mizhgan-tar ek hashr barpa aur bhi
main agar ye jaanta shayad to rota aur bhi

panw ki zanjir girdab-e-bala hoti agar
dubte to sath par ek naqsh banta aur bhi

aandhiyon ne kar diye sare shajar be-barg-o-bar
warna jab patte khadakte dil larazta aur bhi

rauzan-e-dar se hawa ki siskiyan sunte raho
ye na dekho hai koi yan aabla-pa aur bhi

har taraf aawaz ke tute hue girdab hain
raushni kam hai magar chalta hai dariya aur bhi

sirf tu hota to tera wasl kuchh mushkil na tha
kya karen tere siwa kuchh hum ne chaha aur bhi

aarzu shab ki masafat hai to tanha katiye
din ke mahshar mein to ho jaenge tanha aur bhi
