udasi ka ye patthar aansuon se nam nahin hota
hazaron jugnuon se bhi andhera kam nahin hota

kabhi barsat mein shadab belen sukh jati hain
hare pedon ke girne ka koi mausam nahin hota

bahut se log dil ko is tarah mahfuz rakhte hain
koi barish ho ye kaghaz zara bhi nam nahin hota

bichhadte waqt koi bad-gumani dil mein aa jati
use bhi gham nahin hota mujhe bhi gham nahin hota

ye aansu hain inhen phulon mein shabnam ki tarah rakhna
ghazal ehsas hai ehsas ka matam nahin hota
