shor barapa hai khaana-e-dil mein
koee deevaar see giree hai abhee
so gae log us havelee ke
ek khidakee magar khulee hai abhee
main hoon raat ka ek baja hai
khaalee rasta bol raha hai
zindagee jin ke tasavvur se jila paatee thee
hae kya log the jo daam-e-ajal mein aae
ye aap ham to bojh hain zameen ka
zameen ka bojh uthaane vaale kya hue
girafta-dil hain bahut aaj tere deevaane
khuda kare koee tere siva na pahachaane
main is jaanib too us jaanib
beech mein patthar ka dariya tha
hansata paanee rota paanee
mujh ko aavaazen deta tha
kahate hain gazal qaafiya-paimaee hai nasir
ye qaafiya-paimaee zara kar ke to dekho
rah-navard-e-bayaabaan-e-gam sabr kar sabr kar
kaaravaan phir milenge baham sabr kar sabr kar
