Shahr-e-ana mein

ye tez dhup ye kandhon pe jagta suraj
zamin buland hai utni ki aasman ki raqib

wo raushni hai wo bedariyan ki sae na KHwab
bas ek hosh bas ek aagahi bas ek ehsas

aur un ke nur se jalte badan pighalte badan
badan hain kholte sayyal aaine har-su

har aan bahte sada rahtin badalte badan
dimagh dur se un ka nazara karta hai

aur un ke karb ke izhaar se sanwarta hai
wo raushni hai ki az-fard taba fard tamam

kisi ki shakl na surat kisi ka rang na rup
tamam anfus-o-afaq gum hain aapas mein

hain fard fard ki parchhaiyan bhi dhup hi dhup
sab apne ilm ka jadu-e-samri le kar

hazar aankhon se ek dusre ko dekhte hain
rawan dawan hain sab ek dusre ki ruhon mein

aur itna jaan chuke hain sab ek dusre ko
kuchh itni dur nikal aae hain sab apne se

ki dil ke rishton ko ab manta nahin koi
kisi ko apne siwa jaanta nahin koi
