Khuda ka shukr mujhe besh-az-gumaan mila
Tumhare reshmi aanchal ka saayabaan mila.
Na jaane mujh meN samaayi thiN hijrateN kitni
Tere wajood se mujh ko meraa makaan mila.
Khuda ne humpe hadeN kitni baNdh rakhkhi haiN
Hisaar e jism se nikle  to aasmaan mila !!
Hum uske jabr ka qissaa sunaate kis kis ko
YahaaN to jo bhi milaa, uska hamzaban mila.
HikayateN thiN meri raaviyoN ke narghe meN
Phir uske baad jahaaN mujh se bad gumaan mila
Suna hai shahr ki buniyaad usne daali thi
Jo shakhs kal meri basti me be amaan mila.
Ye shayeri mujhe maqdur bhar mili hi nahin
Magar abhi bhi koi le to mujh se taan mila.
