visal-rut ki kamai samajh mein aane lagi
juda hue to judai samajh mein aane lagi

qafas ke par ki duniya ka husn khilne laga
riha hue to rihai samajh mein aane lagi

use bhi apni bhalai ki fikr lahaq thi
hamein bhi apni bhalai samajh mein aane lagi

khuli jab aankh guman se yaqin ki jaanib
to manzaron ki ikai samajh mein aane lagi

bas ek din hi guzara tha be-ghari mein 'safir'
khuda ki sari khudai samajh mein aane lagi
