ret sahra nahin, ret dariya nahin
ret bas ret hai
main faqat main hun aur meri taswir par jo hai mazkur
pahchan meri nahin
mujh mein kitna azal
mujh mein kitna abad, kitni tariKH hai
main nahin jaanta
aise din raat ko dil nahin manta, por par jin ki ginti Thaharti nahin
aaj bas aaj hai
kal sahar tak yahi aaj taraj hai
Nazm
Ret sahra nahin
Akhtar Husain Jafri
