dil ne chaha tha ki ho abla-pai rukhsat
zindagi de ke hui shoala-fishani rukhsat
tum ne jab shama bujhai to samajh men aaya
ek mauhum sa rishta tha so vo bhi rukhsat
main udasi sar-e-bazar bhi laun aise
jaise paani ki tamanna men ho kashti rukhsat
mere israr pe maujud tha ghar pe lekin
us ne khamosh libasi men likhi thi rukhsat
teri taid ki tasvir se ji utthe the
nahin maalum tha ye ret hai paani rukhsat
main havala tiri tahrir ka kis naam se duun
mujh se tu maang chuka harf-e-taalli rukhsat
