khuli hawa aur ghutan ke waqfe
tawil tar the to phir bhi itne garan nahin the

magar guzishta kai dinon se ye waqfe goya simat chuke hain
abhi main ji bhar ke le na pati hun chand sansen hasin faza mein

ki phir usi waqfa-e-ghutan ki saqil dastak
samaaton ko figar karti

payam lati hai mausam-e-habs aur ghutan ke
main is tasalsul se thak chuki hun

ai lam-yazal ai khuda-e-bartar
ye darmiyan ki aziyyaton ko mita ke kar de

mere muqaddar mein mausam-e-gul hameshgi ka
wagarna phir daimi habs bakht kar de
