parind shaKH pe tanha udas baiTha hai
uDan bhul gaya muddaton ki bandish mein

Khaleel Tanveer

parind unchi uDanon ki dhun mein rahta hai
magar zamin ki hadon mein basar bhi karta hai

Khaleel Tanveer

---

---

awan thi koi talab si lahu ke dariya mein
ki mauj mauj bhanwar umr ka safina tha

Khaleel Tanveer

---

---

uswa hue zalil hue dar-ba-dar hue
haq baat lab pe aai to hum be-hunar hue

Khaleel Tanveer

---

---

shab ki diwar giri to dekha
nok-e-nashtar hai sahar kuchh bhi nahin

Khaleel Tanveer

---

---

tamam dard ke rishton se wasta na rahe
hisar-e-jism se niklun to be-sada ho jaun

Khaleel Tanveer

---

---

teri aamad ki muntazir aankhen
bujh gain KHak ho gae raste
