Kya aah bharay koi
Jab aah nahin jati
Dil say bhi zara gehri
Aur arsh say kuch oonchi
Kya nazm likhay koi
Jab khwab ki qeemat mein
Aadarsh ki soorat mein
Kashkoal gada'ei ka
Shaa'ir ko diya jaey
Aur roak liya jaey
Jab shair utarnay say
Badal say zara oopar
Taaron say zara neechay
Kya khaak likhay koi
Jab khaak kay medaan par
Ungli ko hilanay say
Toofan nahin uth'ta
Jab shakh pay imkan ki
Is dasht-e-tamanna mein
Ik phool nahin khilta
Rahbar nahin ruktay
Mohoam si manzil par
Aankhon kay isharay say
Aur noor ki boondon ki
Bochhar nahin hoti
Ik neelay sitaray say
