Chor darwaza khula rahta hai

mere KHwab zaKHmi hue
to duniya ke sare zabte jhuTe lage

main ne zindagi ke liye bhik mangi
magar aabaad lamhon ki puja ke liye

waqt kabhi mere liye na ruka
mujhe west-pan se apnaiyat mahsus hui

log kaghazon se bane khilaune the
jinhen hamesha KHilaf-e-marzi nachna paDa

bhige sahilon ki hawa mein KHun hi KHun tha
jhilon ke aabaad kinare mujhe banjar kar gae

pani par tairta manzar daghabaz nikla
main muKHalif samt bahti kashtiyon mein

ba-yak-waqt sawar ho gaya
baadal baras gae

to aasman par dhuan rah gaya
main ne KHud ko dhuwen mein uDaya

aur masrufiyat se sauda kar liya
