hum ki guftar ke tajir hain jamal-e-khamosh
hurmat-e-lafz se aagah nahin

baat karne ko hunar jaante hain
bolte bolte thakte hi nahin

jab takallum ke tasalsul se tahi hote hain
to lagta hai ki hai

is ghadi tasht-e-zabani khali
ho gaya khwan-e-maani khali

aise aalam mein hamein
teri khamoshi-e-khush-rang kashish karti hai

tera sannata hamein teri taraf lata hai
