Tasawwur kar-farma tha ki lazzat thi kahani ki

tasawwur kar-farma tha ki lazzat thi kahani ki
isi taswir ne aankhon pe jaise hukmarani ki

meri parwaz ka manzar abhi tiron se chhalni hai
lahu mein tar-ba-tar hai dastan naql-e-makani ki

labon par barf jam jae to istifsar kya mani
ki shor-o-ghul faqat tamhid hai shola-bayani ki

qadam rakhte hi jaise khul gaya daldal mein darwaza
ajab karigari dekhi yahan miTTi mein pani ki

dikhai rah sahil ki unhen pur-pech maujon ne
usi tufan ne kashti ke haq mein baadbani ki

bahut zarKHez miTTi hai 'nizam' apne badan mein bhi
hawas ne phul mahkae lahu ne baghbani ki
