mausam-e-sarma ki ye viran aur maghmum sham
kohar ki chadar mein lipti hai sisakti kaenat

git khwabon ki tarah larzan sulagti hai hayat
barf mein dubi hawa ki sitiyan

chil ke jangal ki mithi loriyan
dagmagate hain pareshan muzmahil lamhon ke gam

chaar-su aawaz de kar puchhta phirta hun main
in hawaon ki jabin-e-naz par

kya kahin likkha hua hai mera nam
ud rahe hain raston par zard patte jo kabhi

chand lamhon ko bane the zinat-e-shakh-e-shajar
jaane ye kab tak rahenge yun hawa ke dosh par

ku-ba-ku qarya-ba-qarya yam-ba-yam mahw-e-safar
dukh ke lambe silsile aur chand lamhon ki khushi

hae apni zindagi
