basti mili makan mile baam-o-dar mile
main DhunDhta raha ki kahin koi ghar mile
be-samt kaenat mein kya samt ki talash
bas chal paDe hain rah jahan aur jidhar mile
aawargi mein tum bhi kahan tak chaloge sath
pahle bhi raste mein kai ham-safar mile
lagta hai ab ke jaan hi le legi fasl-e-gul
ashkon mein aaj bhi kai laKHt-e-jigar mile
shayad guzar raha hun kisi karbala se main
KHeme jale hue mile nezon pe sar mile
main chahta hun kaT de koi meri ye baat
jitne baDe daraKHt mile be-samar mile
kya hath panw mar rahe ho zamin par
Dubo samundaron mein to shayad guhar mile
Ghazal
Basti mili makan mile baam-o-dar mile
