is taraf se guzre the qafile baharon ke
aaj tak sulagte hain zakhm rahguzaron ke
khalvaton ke shaidai khalvaton men khulte hain
ham se puchh kar dekho raaz parda-daron ke
gesuon ki chhanv men dil-navaz chehre hain
ya hasin dhundlakon men phuul hain baharon ke
pahle hans ke milte hain phir nazar churate hain
ashna-sifat hain log ajnabi dayaron ke
tum ne sirf chaha hai ham ne chhu ke dekhe hain
pairahan ghataon ke jism barq-paron ke
shughl-e-mai-parasti go jashn-e-na-muradi tha
yuun bhi kat gae kuchh din tere sogvaron ke
