ab koi phul mere dard ke dariya mein nahin
ab koi zakhm mere zehn ke sahra mein nahin

na kisi jannat-e-arzi ka hawala mujh se
na jahannam ka dahakta hua shoala koi

mere ehsas ke parde pe rawan rahta hai
main kahan hun? mujhe malum nahin!!

bolte lafz bhi khamosh tamannai hain
jagte khwab ki tabir yahi hai shayad

meri taqdir yahi hai shayad
main jise dekhna chahun mujhe andha kah de!

kaun hun main mujhe ai dida-e-bina kah de!
zindagi kyun kisi mafhum se aari hi rahi

dhup mein jism sulagte hi chale jate hain
maut ka khauf simatta hai bikhar jata hai

fakhta jaise kisi ped ki shakhon mein chhupi baithi ho
sans sine mein kisi tir ki manind utar jati hai

munh chhupae hue suraj bhi fana ki taswir
pyas ban kar kisi dariya mein utar jata hai

aas ne yas ke mahtab se khushbu mangi
chehra-e-gul pe kisi qatra-e-shabnam ki dua utri hai
