kaisa matam kaisa rona miTTi ka
TuT gaya hai ek khilauna miTTi ka
utrunga aafaq se jab main dharti par
bhar lunga daman mein sona miTTi ka
ek din miTTi oDh ke mujh ko sona hai
kya gham jo hai aaj bichhauna miTTi ka
uncha uDne ki KHwahish mein tum 'arif'
maon jaisa pyar na khona miTTi ka
Ghazal
Kaisa matam kaisa rona miTTi ka
