Jism ke bayaban mein dard ki dua mangen

jism ke bayaban mein dard ki dua mangen
phir kisi musafir se raushni zara mangen

kho gae kitabon mein titliyon ke baal-o-par
soch mein hain ab bachche kya chhupaen kya mangen

zafrani kheton mein ab makan ugte hain
kis tarah zaminon se dil ka rabta mangen

hum bhi ho gae shamil masnui tijarat mein
hum ki chehra-saman the ab ke aaina mangen

warna ilm namon ka uTh na jae dharti se
aadmi phale-phule aao ye dua mangen

is se peshtar ki ye raat mund le aankhen
nanhe-munne jugnu se raushni zara mangen

wo sadaen deta hai aaKHiri jazire se
aur hum nigahon ka husn-e-ibtida mangen

kis ke samne rakhiye khol kar raza apni
aur kis se jadu ka bolta diya mangen
