ya KHuda

sare afkar-o-aqaed ke tilism
sare asnam-e-khayal
hum ne wo but-shikani ki hai ki mismar hain sab
apne ghar bar ki mahfuz fasilen hum ne


yun girai hain ki ab
dur-o-nazdik ki har tund hawa
sab charaghon ko bas ek phunk mein gul kar jae
hum ki har silsila-o-qaid ki zanjir se aazad hue


aise majlis ke makin hain ki jahan
koi darwaza koi rauzan-e-diwar nahin
ya khuda
koi gham aisa ki har gham ko subuksar kare


koi aag aisi ki har aag ko khashak kare
koi mafhum koi naqsh-e-tamanna ki jise
apne dil-o-jaan ka lahu nazr karun
surkh-ru ho ke kahun


zist ki ye mohlat do-ek nafas
itni be-rang na thi
itni faromaya na thi
