zist ki aagahi ka hasil hai
dard hi shairi ka hasil hai

hai khirad bhi khirad ke narghe mein
ishq khud gumrahi ka hasil hai

zindagi ka sabaat hai is mein
ye jo aansu hansi ka hasil hai

yun tera pas se guzar jaana
umr ki be-rukhi ka hasil hai

puchhti hai saba gulistan se
phul kyun tazgi ka hasil hai

lut leti hai qafile kaise
raat jab bandagi ka hasil hai

kab ye jaanega aadmi jaane
aadmi aadmi ka hasil hai

hai tarannum sada ke pardon mein
naghmagi bansuri ka hasil hai

soch ka samt rah nahin sakti
sher aawargi ka hasil hai

is qadar pas aa ke mat baitho
qurb beganagi ka hasil hai

tu mere rat-jagon ki manzil hai
din ki diwangi ka hasil hai
