Ek wajudi dost ke nam

tum ne jitne bhi badle the apne aap se aur phir apne jaison se
ek ek kar ke pure dil se chuka bhi liye hain

apne aap se guttham-guttha hone mein hi sab jangon ki lazzat hai
lazzat, jis ka shayad kuchh bhi KHarch nahin hai

aur ye jang ki jis mein kuchh aisi nazmon ka mal-e-ghanimat mil jata hai
jis par achchhi-KHasi umr guzar jati hai

lekin masnui dardon se kuchh nahin hota
pyare dost

KHilqat teri napi-tuli baaton ke unche darwazon mein
ramz bhari gambhir aur gahri aawazon mein

ek nae aadam ke janm ki KHatir
teri nazmon aur aqidon ke bistar ke tawaf mein hai

lekin tere sab jazbon ki shiddat
ek biyah ke be-rang lihaf mein hai

tu jo zard kitabon ke jaise par jaane kab se
kaise kaise aasanon mein

jhuTi shahwat ke wade mein leTa hai
apne sheari hizyanon ke ilhamon mein haklata hai

nae janam ke bashaarat ke is bawle ghash mein
go nae KHwabon ki ranon mein niglata hai
