Asir-e-zat-e-raushni

na lazzaton ka bahr tha na KHwahishon ki wadiyan
na daere azab ke na zawiye sawab ke

bas ek raushni asir-e-zat thi
muhit kaenat thi azal se be-libas thi

to yun hua ki dafatan
mere badan ke pairahan mein chhup gai

to lazzaton ka bahr mauj-zan hua
to KHwahishon ki wadiyan sulag gain

to daere azab ke phisal gae
to zawiye sawab ke machal gae

ajib waqia nahin
mere badan ka pairahan to lazzaton ke tar mein buna gaya

wo KHwahishon ke bahr mein jo mauj mauj bah gaya
to kya hua

ye raaz raaz rah gaya
wo raushni jo qabl-e-irtikab hi

mere badan ke pairahan mein jaguzin thi
sad-irtikab kyun hui nahin
