Chup… yunhi dhal gayee
Sham… sitaron main doob kar
Waaday… ye puranay
Phir nibhanay ka soch kar
Koi yaad, bay awaaz
Pagal kahay mujhay
Dil idhar, dharkay magar
Seenay main raat kay
Khirkiyan hain tak rahi
Udaas hay ye roshni
Dhoondo mujhay na is jagah
Ho chala main gum shuda!
Shehr… tamam sokhtann
Jesay… jalay tera badan
Pighlain yoon munn ki aanch pay
Munjamid wo silsilayy
Nakhuaandah ye ulfatain
Ankhon main hay saroor bhi
Duniya ki rasmain har kuja
Moqa bhi hay, dastoor bhi
Rehzano kay maatehat
Shadi shuma zindani ast!
Khojo na mujhko is tarah
Maskan mera hay gumshuda!
Aa surr naya ik cher dey
Jo ho gaya so khair hay
. . .
