Nam ka patthar

sadr darwaze pe ek nam ka patthar hai abhi
lauh-e-marmar pe hai ye nam jali harfon mein

mere dada se hai ye nam jali harfon mein
ye haweli, ye sin-o-sal ki tamir qadam

is mein kuchh log raha karte the
aaj tak sae yahan un ke phira karte hain

dil ko har bar guman hota hai
mere man bap, mere bhai bahan

rauzanon se na kahin jhank rahe hon mujh ko
us se wabasta hain kitni baaten

shadiyan us mein rachai gain, shahnai baji
log ikaTThe hue pakwan lage

aur han us se janaze bhi uThe
dard-mandon ki, aza-daron ki

marne wale ke liye
aah-o-zari ki sadaen gaunjin

dur uftada laDakpan ki pukar
umr ki khoi hui rahon se

khinch lai hai mujhe
ek makDi ki tarah
