Masruf hum bhi anjuman-araiyon mein the

masruf hum bhi anjuman-araiyon mein the
ghar jal raha tha log tamashaiyon mein the

kitni jarahaten pas-e-ehsas-e-dard thin
kitne hi zaKHm ruh ki gahraiyon mein the

kuchh KHwab the jo ek se manzar ka aks the!
kuchh shobade bhi us ki masihaiyon mein the

tapti zamin pe uDte bagulon ka raqs tha
sat aasman qahr ki purwaiyon mein the

is tarah KHair o shar mein kabhi ran paDa na tha
kitne hi hadse meri paspaiyon mein the

KHilqat pe sadgi ka main ilzam kya dharun
jitne shigaf the meri danaiyon mein the

aashob-e-zat se nikal aaya tha ek jahan
hum qaid apni qafiya-paimaiyon mein the
