tirgi taq mein jadi hui hai
dhup dahliz par padi hui hai

dil pe nakaamiyon ke hain paiwand
aas ki soi bhi gadi hui hai

mere jaisi hai meri parchhain
dhup mein pal ke ye badi hui hai

gher rakkha hai na-rasai ne
aur khwahish wahin khadi hui hai

main ne taswir phenk di hai magar
kil diwar mein gadi hui hai

haarta bhi nahin gham-e-dauran
zid pe ummid bhi adi hui hai

dil kisi ke khayal mein hai gum
raat ko khwab ki padi hui hai
