wo bad-dua use samjhe agar dua likkhun
ab aise shaKHs ko main apna haal kya likkhun
kisi ka zauq-e-samaat qusur-war nahin
main kyun na harf-e-tamanna ko be-sada likkhun
ab aate lamhon ke aasar ye batate hain
jo waqt bit gaya us ko hadsa likkhun
mujhe talluq-e-KHatir ho kya zamane se
kisi ke nam bhi KHat ho tera pata likkhun
isi KHayal se fikr-e-suKHan mein ghaltan hun
main chahta hun ki mazmun koi naya likkhun
ye KHud-satai ke pahlu ye ehtiyat 'hayat'
kabhi to saf koi apna waqia likkhun
Ghazal
Wo bad-dua use samjhe agar dua likkhun
