koi rukne ki tere shahr mein tadbir na thi
mere hathon mein teri zulf bhi zanjir na thi
dekh kar tum ko sarabon ka tamasha sa raha
KHwab tha ye bhi kisi KHwab ki tabir na thi
so chuka tha kisi masum farishte ki tarah
us ki aankhon mein to qatil ki bhi taswir na thi
regzaron se lagao raha yun hi warna
ret par mere liye koi bhi tahrir na thi
itni qurbat pe wo begana raha kyon mujh se
us ke dil mein koi diwar to tamir na thi
sar qalam hote rahe nam pe chahat ke magar
koi ranjha na tha basti mein koi hir na thi
aaj fankar hai ek miTTi ke Dhele ki tarah
thi to pahle bhi par itni kabhi tahqir na thi
