Shayad meri nigah mein koi shigaf tha

shayad meri nigah mein koi shigaf tha
warna udas raat ka chehra to saf tha

ek lash tairti rahi barfili jhil mein
jhuTi tasalliyon ka amin zer-e-naf tha

boson ki rakh mein the sulagte sharar-e-lams
chehre ki silwaTon mein koi inkishaf tha

dozaKH ke gird gunge farishte the mahw-e-raqs
aur pisliyon ki Tis pe maila ghilaf tha

khiDki se jhankta hua wo pur-ghurur sar
taza hawa se us ka koi iKHtilaf tha

raste farar ke sabhi masdud to na the
apni shikast ka mujhe kyun e'tiraf tha
