uljh karke teri agar men yuñ aabaad ho jaaun ki jaise lucknow ka main ameenabad ho jaaun main yamuna ki tarah tanhaa nihaaru taaj ko kab tak koi ganga mile to main ilahaabad ho jaaun

koi haseen badan jin ki dastaras men nahin yahii kaheinge ki kuchh faaeda havas men nahin

KHud ko itnaa bhi mat bachaaya kar baarishen hon to bheeg jaaya kar kaam le kuchh haseen hothon se baaton baaton men muskuraya kar

kuchh na rah sakaa jahaan viraaniyaan to rah gaiin tum chale ga.e to kya kahaaniyaan to rah gaiin

daulat shuhrat biwi bacche achha ghar aur achchhe dost kuchh to hai jo in ke baad bhi haasil karna baaki hai kabhi-kabhi to dil karta hai chalti rail se kood padhoon phir kahtaa hoon...paagal ab to thoda rastaa baaki hai

ye daagh daagh ujaala ye shab-gazeeda sehar vo intizaar tha jis ka ye vo sehar to nahin

tu jo mil jaa.e to taqdeer nigoon ho jaa.e yuñ na tha maine faqat chaaha tha yuñ ho jaa.e

meri KHaamoshiyon men larzaan hai mere naalon ki gum-shuda awaaz

faiz ki raah sar-b-sar manzil ham jahaan pahunchen kaamyaab aa.e

ik gul ke murjhaane par kya gulshan men kohraam macha ik chehra kumhala jaane se kitne dil naashaad hue
