Tishnagi-e-lab pe hum aks-e-ab likkhenge

tishnagi-e-lab pe hum aks-e-ab likkhenge
jin ka ghar nahin koi ghar ke KHwab likhenge

tum ko kya KHabar is ki zindagi pe kya biti
zindagi ke zaKHmon par hum kitab likkhenge

jis hawa ne kaTi hain KHamushi ki zanjiren
us hawa ke lahje ko inqalab likkhenge

jhuT ki parastish mein umr jin ki guzri hai
tirgi-e-shab ko wo aaftab likkhenge

sher ki sadaqat par hum yaqin rakhte hain
maslahat ke chehron ko ba-naqab likkhenge

suliyon pe jhulega bad-nihad har munsif
munsifi ka jab bhi hum KHud nisab likkhenge

gham nahin jo KHwabon ki luT gai hain tabiren
hum nazar ke taqon mein aur KHwab likkhenge

hirz-e-jaan samajhte hain hum watan ki miTTi ko
apne ghar ke KHaron ko hum gulab likkhenge

is ghazal ke partaw mein be-gharon ki baaten hain
be-gharon ke nam is ka intisab likkhenge

har dalil kaTenge hum dalil-e-raushan se
'baKHsh' sau sawalon ka ek jawab likkhenge
