zamin khanakti rahi aur ghata ne kuchh na kaha
gali tak aa ke bhi kali bala ne kuchh na kaha

kahan kahan pe darakhton ki chadaren utrin
lagi wo chup ki barahna hawa ne kuchh na kaha

tamam shab padi jazbon pe itni os ki bas
tamam shab khalish-e-der-pa ne kuchh na kaha

kahan bujhe wo darichon se jhankte chehre
palat ke aai to baad-e-saba ne kuchh na kaha

wo musht-e-khak ki majburiyan samajhta hai
jabin ke dagh gine phir khuda ne kuchh na kaha

ajab hai qaht-e-sada bhi ki jab gire hum log
idhar udhar se kisi ham-nawa ne kuchh na kaha

to kya kisi ne use tutte nahin dekha
to kya kisi se mere be-wafa ne kuchh na kaha
