Kahin phool dhoop ke chawo me hare riban se bandha hua

Kahin phool dhoop ke chawo me hare riban se bandha hua,
Woh ghazal ka lahza naya naya na kaha hua na suna hua,

Jise udha ke legayi hawa woh warakh tha dil ke kitaab ka,
Kain khoone dil se likha hua kahin aansoow se mita hua


Kai meel reat ko kaat kar koi moj phool khiia gayi
Koi ped pyaas se mar raha nadi ke pas khada hua

Wahi khat ke jis pe jagah jagah do mahakte honton ke chand they
Kisi bhule bisre se taaq par tahe gard hoga daba hua

Mujhe haadson ne saja saja ke bahut haseen bana diya
Mira dil bhi jaise duIhan ka haath ho menhdiyon se racha hua

Wahi shehr hai wahi raaste wahi ghar hai aur wahi Iaan bhi
Magar us dareeche se punchna “Yodarakht anaar ka kya hua

Mere saath jugnu hain hamsafar magar is sharar ki bisaat kya
Ye chiragh koi chiragh hai na jaia hua na bujha hua
