Gar ye tera mera nahi hota
phir koi mas`ala nahi hota

baat zaahid yu`n karta hai jaise
maiqade me khuda nahi hota

larh-kharhai wo umr bhar jisko
koi ka`nta chubha nahi hota

dard se dil laga ke dekha hai
dard itna bura nahi hota

husn ko ye ada bhi lazim hai 
uska wada wafa nahi hota

beqarari.qarar,aur kya kya
teri baho`n me kya nahi hota

aaj `kausar`ki baat sun leeje
roz shiqwa gila nahi hota

Poonam `kausar`
