mujhe un wadiyon mein sair ki khwahish nahin baqi
mujhe un baadalon se raaz ki baaten nahin karni

mujhe un dhund ki chadar mein ab lipte nahin rahna
mujhe us aalam-e-yakh-bastagi se kuchh nahin kahna

mujhe mauhum lafzon ka shanasai nahin banna
mujhe is kar-e-pur-asrar ka dai nahin banna

main khwabon ke darichon mein khada rahne se qasir hun
main zinda zindagi ki saaton ka ek shair hun

mujhe ek lahlahate jhulte paikar ki khwahish hai
mujhe in manzaron mein aise ek manzar ki khwahish hai
