Ab sarab ke chashme maujzan nahin hote

ab sarab ke chashme maujzan nahin hote
KHushk ho gae shayad tishnagi ke sab sote

nind mein bhi chadar ka itna pas hai tum ko
kuchh to panw phailao is tarah nahin sote

kaisi raat aai hai nind uD gai sab ki
manzilen thapakti hain qafile nahin sote

KHwab KHud haqiqat hain aankh khol kar dekho
kis ne kah diya tum se KHwab sach nahin hote

chaak ho gaya daman hath ho gae zaKHmi
ek dagh-e-ruswai aur kis tarah dhote

girya-o-tabassum to hain naqab chehron ke
aaine nahin hanste aaine nahin rote
