Kahan tak kawish-e-isbaat-e-paiham

kahan tak kawish-e-isbaat-e-paiham
kahan tak zaKHm-e-dil tadbir-e-marham

sukut-e-shab hujum-e-na-umidi
shumar-e-dagh-ha-e-zist aur hum

kabhi aalam ghubar-e-chashm-e-hairan
kabhi wo ek nigah aur ek aalam

baDhao jurat-e-afkar ki lau
abhi hai garmi-e-bazm-e-junun kam

dahakne do abhi daghon se mahfil
chhalakne do abhi paimana-e-gham

ye kis manzil pe le aai tamanna
ki bas ek dard-e-tanhai hai mahram
