Ek lamhe mein kata hai muddaton ka faasla Main abhi aaya hoon tasveerein puraani dekh kar
Mujhe to maar hi daalega khaalipan meraJo dil se teri judaai ka gam nikal jaaye
Girja mein mandiron mein azaanon mein bant gaya Hote hi subah aadmi khaano mein bant gaya
Shohrat ki bulandi bhi pal bhar ka tamaasha hai Jis daal pe baithe ho wo toot bhi sakti hai
Zara sa katra kahi aaj agar ubharta hai Samundaron hi ke lehje mein baat karta hai
Silsiley tod gaya wo sabhi jaate-jaateWarna itne to maraasim the ke aate-jaate
Bikhar bikhar si gayi hai kitaab saanso kiYe kaagzaat khuda jaane kab kahaan ud jaayein
Waise to ek aansu hi bahaakar mujhe le jaayeAise koi tufaan hila bhi nahin sakta
Le saans bhi aahista ki naazuk hai bahut kaam Aafaaq ki is kaargaah-e-sheeshaagari ka
