waqt ki dastaras se bahar hun
main nae qafiye ka masdar hun

mujh ko is par sochne wale
main tere samne ka manzar hun

ye abhi tak nahin khula mujh par
ghar mein hote hue bhi be-ghar hun

mujh ko aankhen pasand aati hain
main kisi sham ka muqaddar hun

main qalandar mizaj hun 'rahil'
dasht ki khamushi ka mazhar hun
