us se bichhad ke bab-e-hunar band kar diya
hum jis mein ji rahe the wo ghar band kar diya

shayad khabar nahin hai ghazalan-e-shahr ko
ab hum ne jangalon ka safar band kar diya

apne lahu ke shor se tang aa chuka hun main
kis ne ise badan mein nazar-band kar diya

ab dhund aur qadr-shanasan-e-rang-o-bu
hum ne ye kaam ai gul-e-tar band kar diya

ek ism-e-jaan pe dal ke khak-e-faramushi
andhe sadaf mein hum ne guhar band kar diya
