sabhi ko gham hai samundar ke KHushk hone ka
ki khel KHatm hua kashtiyan Dubone ka
Shahryar
safar ka nashsha chaDha hai to kyun utar jae
maza to jab hai koi lauT ke na ghar jae
Shahryar
sham hote hi khuli saDkon ki yaad aati hai
sochta roz hun main ghar se nahin niklunga
Shahryar
shadid pyas thi phir bhi chhua na pani ko
main dekhta raha dariya teri rawani ko
Shahryar
shahr-e-ummid haqiqat mein nahin ban sakta
to chalo us ko tasawwur hi mein tamir karen
Shahryar
shikwa koi dariya ki rawani se nahin hai
rishta hi meri pyas ka pani se nahin hai
Shahryar
sine mein jalan aankhon mein tufan sa kyun hai
is shahr mein har shaKHs pareshan sa kyun hai
Shahryar
siyah raat nahin leti nam Dhalne ka
yahi to waqt hai suraj tere nikalne ka
Shahryar
ye ek shajar ki jis pe na kanTa na phul hai
sae mein us ke baiTh ke rona fuzul hai
Shahryar
