    Vol 84, May 1973

    raat kaafī lambī thī duur tak thā tanhā maiñ

    ik zarā se roġhan par kitnā jaltā-bujhtā maiñ

    sab nishān qadmoñ ke miT ga.e the sāhil se

    kis ke vāste āḳhir Dūbtā ubhartā maiñ

    merā badan lekin buuñd buuñd ko tarsā

    dast aur sahrā par abr ban ke barsā maiñ

    adh-jale se kāġhaz par jaise harf raushan hoñ

    us koshishoñ par bhī zehn se na utrā maiñ

    donoñ shakloñ meñ apne haath kuchh nahīñ aayā

    kitnī baar simTā maiñ kitnī baar phailā maiñ

    zindagī ke āñgan meñ dhuup nahīñ utrī

    apne sard kamre se kitnī baar niklā maiñ

    aaj tak koī kashtī is taraf nahīñ aa.ī

    pāniyoñ ke ghere meñ aisā huuñ jazīra maiñ

    kāTtā thā har manzar dūsre manāzir ko

    koī manzar āñkhoñ meñ kis tarah se bhartā maiñ

    raat kafi lambi thi dur tak tha tanha main

    ek zara se roghan par kitna jalta-bujhta main

    sab nishan qadmon ke miT gae the sahil se

    kis ke waste aaKHir Dubta ubharta main

    mera hi badan lekin bund bund ko tarsa

    dast aur sahra par abr ban ke barsa main

    adh-jale se kaghaz par jaise harf raushan hon

    us ki koshishon par bhi zehn se na utra main

    donon shaklon mein apne hath kuchh nahin aaya

    kitni bar simTa main kitni bar phaila main

    zindagi ke aangan mein dhup hi nahin utri

    apne sard kamre se kitni bar nikla main

    aaj tak koi kashti is taraf nahin aai

    paniyon ke ghere mein aisa hun jazira main

    kaTta tha har manzar dusre manazir ko

    koi manzar aankhon mein kis tarah se bharta main
