teri soorat se hai aalam men bahaaron ko sabaat teri aankhoñ ke siva duniya men rakha kya hai

ye mujhe chain kyun nahin padta ek hi shaKHs tha jahaan men kya

khu dii ko kar buland itnaa ki har taqdeer se pahle KHuda bande se KHud pooche bataa teri raza kya hai

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

suhaagan bhi bataa degi magar tum poochho vidhwa se ye mangalsutra zever ke alaava bhi bahut kuchh hai ye kya ik maqbare ko aakhri had maan baithe ho mohabbat sang-e-marmar ke alaava bhi bahut kuchh hai

takra gaya vo mujh se kitaaben li.e hue phir meraa dil aur us kii kitaaben bikhar gaiin

lagta hai kaii raaton ka jaaga tha musavvir tasveer kii aankhoñ se thakan jhaank rahi hai

in ka uthna nahin hai hashr se kam ghar ki deewaar baap ka saaya

na hon ashaar men maani na sahi KHud kalaami ka zariya hi sahi tum na nawaazo she'r ko na sunaayenge ye meraa zaati nazariya hi sahi

ye saal bhi udaasiyaan de kar chala gaya tum se mile baghair december chala gaya
