usi ne aadam ke naqsh-e-pa ko azal kiya tha bharam rakha tha
zamin pe jalwa-fagan na ho kar bhi jis ne pahla qadam rakha tha

hum ek tartib se tumhaari udas nazmon pe ro chuke hain
ki aansuon aur khun ke beach dedh siski ka sam rakha tha

zaif waqton mein apne kumbe ki zimmedari uthai hum ne
tumhaare abbu ne munh dikhai mein is hatheli pe gham rakha tha

inhi gulon se ab aathwin sur ki mithi aawaz aa rahi hai
jinhon ne hijran ki raat larzish ke khas unsur ko kam rakha tha

use batana ki apne dariyaon ki hifazat ke kaam aae
wo ped kashti bane hue hain jinhon ne sahra mein nam rakha tha
