ye kya ki baith gae gard-e-rahguzar ki tarah
safar tamam karo dosto safar ki tarah

ruke jo rah mein un par na-jaane kya guzri
hamin to dhup hai ab saya-e-shajar ki tarah

faza faza jo pareshan hain abr ki surat
sadaf sadaf wo milenge kabhi guhar ki tarah

gham-e-jahan ki tapish se sulag rahe hain badan
hayat bhi hai kisi dasht ke safar ki tarah

kabhi to aa ki ho raushan charagh-e-sham-e-visal
mera bhi ghar nazar aae kabhi to ghar ki tarah
