tum kab the qarib itne main kab dur raha hun
chhoDo na karo baat ki main tum se KHafa hun
rahne do ki ab tum bhi mujhe paDh na sakoge
barsat mein kaghaz ki tarah bhig gaya hun
sau bar girah de ke kisi aas ne joDa
sau bar main dhage ki tarah TuT chuka hun
jaega jahan tu meri aawaz sunega
main chor ki manind tere dil mein chhupa hun
ek nuqte pe aa kar bhi ham-ahang nahin hain
tu apna fasana hai to main apni sada hun
chheDo na abhi shaKH-e-shikasta ka fasana
Thahro main abhi raqs-e-saba dekh raha hun
manzil ka pata jis ne diya tha mujhe 'baqi'
us shaKHs se raste mein kai bar mila hun
Ghazal
Tum kab the qarib itne main kab dur raha hun
