udas baitha diye zakhm ke jalae hue
unhen main soch raha hun jo ab parae hue

mujhe na chhod akela junun ke sahra mein
ki raste ye tere hi to hain dikhae hue

ghira hua hun main kab se jazira-e-gham mein
zamana guzra samundar mein mauj aae hue

kabhi jo nam likha tha gulon pe shabnam se
wo aaj dil mein mere aag hai lagae hue

zamana phul bichhata tha meri rahon mein
jo waqt badla to patthar hai ab uthae hue

haya ka rang wahi un ka mere khwab mein bhi
dabae danton mein ungli nazar jhukae hue

main tum se tark-e-ta'alluq ki baat kyun sochun
juda na jismon se 'anzar' kabhi bhi sae hue
