Hanut chehre

shahr-e-dil ke KHamosh gali-kuchon mein
dukhon ke qafile aa kar Thahre hain

hadd-e-nazar udasi ki dhup phaili hai
wafa ke Thukrae

sitam-parwar chehron ki bhiD mein
mohabbat ki dar-badari ka faisla hua hai

nafraton mein Dube kuchh chehre mil ke
ek KHush-rang manzar ko

viraniyon ke dasht mein dafn karte hain
safed parindon ki aaankhon mein

ashkon ka samundar unDel kar
unhen tanhaiyon ke zindan mein qaid karte hain

aur sitam-gazida lamhon ki baqa ki KHatir
sitamgari ke nae silsilon ka ahd karte hain
