Kya karun

phir dil mein dard silsila-e-jumba hai kya karun

phir chaak chaak sina hai aawaz dun kise
phir tar tar jaib-o-gareban hai kya karun

phir ittisal-e-gardan-o-KHanjar hai kya kahun
phir iKHtilat-e-zaKHm-o-namak-dan hai kya karun

phir ek girah harif-e-nafas hai kise bataun
phir ek khaTak rafiqe-e-rag-e-jaan hai kya karun

sine mein ek dashna sa leta hai karwaTen
rag rag mein ek aag si ghaltan hai kya karun

jis chiz par madar tha darman-e-zist ka
wo shai phir aaj dard ka unwan hai kya karun

phir sar par abr-e-daur-e-junun hai ghira hua

raaton ki nam hawaon mein taron ki chhanw mein

bite dinon ki yaad par-afshan hai kya karun
jis chandni ko khoe hue muddaten huin

phir zehn ke ufuq se numayan hai kya karun
taqdir ne kabhi jo nikala tha ek julus

phir jada-e-nafas pe KHiraman hai kya karun
wo gham ki de chuka hun jise bar-ha shikast

phir dil se 'josh' dast-o-gareban hai kya karun
