muKHtasar si zindagi mein kitni nadani kare

ye zamin wo aasman aisa na tha

nae safar ki lazzaton se jism o jaan ko sar karo

kin mausamon ke yaro hum KHwab dekhte hain

matlab ke liye hain na maani ke liye hain

hamein to ab ke bhi aai na ras tanhai

apni KHatir sitam ijad bhi hum karte hain

ek pal mein dam-e-guftar se lab-e-tar ho jae

hausla itna abhi yar nahin kar pae

kin bastiyon ke yaro hum KHwab dekhte hain

ahl-e-duniya dekhte hain kitni hairani ke sath

aao ye KHamoshi toDen aaine se baat karen

wo bastiyan wo baam wo dar kitni dur hain

ek tufan ka saman bani hai koi chiz

yun hi sar chaDh ke har ek mauj-e-bala bolegi

tera chehra na mera husn-e-nazar hai sab kuchh

mahw-e-nazzara-e-hairat hai hawa pahli bar

muTThiyon mein ret bhar li hai bataun kis tarah

agar koi KHalish-e-jawedan salamat hai

tujhse shikwa na koi ranj hai tanhai ka

phir kisi KHwab ki palkon pe sawari aai

kisi ke KHwab se baqi na bedari se qaem hai

zindagi kya hai ba-juz wahm-o-guman mere liye

ab rahe ya na rahe koi malal-e-duniya

usi dard-ashna dil ki taraf-dari mein rahte hain

use bhulae hue mujhko ek zamana hua

abhi ruswaiyon ka ek baDa bazar aaega

ye jahan KHub hai sab is ke nazare achchhe

hijr ki manzil hamein ab ke pasand aai nahin

dil to ek shaKHs ko naKHchir banane mein gaya

kisi ke ghar na mah o sal ke mausam mein rahte hain

kas-o-na-kas hain bahut dast-e-talab ke aage

zamin dil pe nai khulti hai ada-e-suKHan
