yahan kisi ko bhi kuchh hasb-e-arzu na mila

KHamushi achchhi nahin inkar hona chahiye

nahin ki tere ishaare nahin samajhta hun

thakna bhi lazmi tha kuchh kaam karte karte

bas ek bar kisi ne gale lagaya tha

yun bhi hota hai ki yak dam koi achchha lag jae

kab wo zahir hoga aur hairan kar dega mujhe

pae hue is waqt ko khona hi bahut hai

abhi kisi ke na mere kahe se guzrega

jaisi ab hai isi haalat mein nahin rah sakta

ye bhi mumkin hai ki aankhen hon tamasha hi na ho

abhi aankhen khuli hain aur kya kya dekhne ko

aag ka rishta nikal aae koi pani ke sath

KHushi mili to ye aalam tha bad-hawasi ka

baat aisi bhi koi nahin ki mohabbat bahut ziyaada hai

KHush bahut phirte hain wo ghar mein tamasha kar ke

ye baat alag hai mera qatil bhi wahi tha

yaksu bhi lag raha hun bikharne ke bawajud

yun bhi nahin ki sham-o-sahar intizar tha

kis nae KHwab mein rahta hun Duboya hua main

maine kab dawa kiya tha sar-ba-sar baqi hun main

na usko bhul pae hain na humne yaad rakkha hai

bewafai karke niklun ya wafa kar jaunga

simaTne ki hawas kya thi bikharna kis liye hai

dekho to kuchh ziyan nahin khone ke bawajud

hamein bhi matlab-o-mani ki justuju hai bahut

na koi baat kahni hai na koi kaam karna hai

chalo itni to aasani rahegi

abhi to karna paDega safar dobara mujhe

bhul baiTha tha magar yaad bhi KHud maine kiya

kabhi awwal nazar aana kabhi aaKHir hona

bijli giri hai kal kisi ujDe makan par

agar is khel mein ab wo bhi shamil hone wala hai

jo banda-e-KHuda tha KHuda hone wala hai

lahr ki tarah kinare se uchhal jaana hai

sirf aankhen thin abhi un mein ishaare nahin the

mere andar wo mere siwa kaun tha

ek hi bar nahin hai wo dubara kam hai

khiDkiyan kis tarah ki hain aur dar kaisa hai wo

ilzam ek ye bhi uTha lena chahiye

na ghaT hai koi apna na ghar hamara hua

chhupa hua jo numudar se nikal aaya

yun to kis chiz ki kami hai

ba-zahir sehat achchhi hai jo bimari ziyaada hai

na guman rahne diya hai na yaqin rahne diya

ruKH-e-zeba idhar nahin karta

yahan sab se alag sab se juda hona tha mujhko

bahut suljhi hui baaton ko bhi uljhae rakhte hain

tilism-e-hosh-ruba mein patang uDti hai

dil ka ye dasht arsa-e-mahshar laga mujhe
