ab apni chiKH bhi kya apni be zabani kya
mahz asiron ki mahsur zindagani kya
ruten jo tu ne utari hain KHub hongi magar
babul-sej pe sajti hai gul-fishani kya
hai jism ek tazadat ke kai KHane
karega par inhen ek rang-e-asmani kya
hazar karwaTen jhankar hi sunati hain
yun jhaTpaTane se zanjir hogi pani kya
zamin ke aur taqaze falak kuchh aur kahe
qalam bhi chup hai ki ab moD le kahani kya
ana to qaid ki tashhir se gurezan thi
pukar uTThi magar meri be-zabani kya
main KHushk naKHl si jangal tawil tez hawa
bikher degi mujhe bhi ye be-makani kya
