paraya lag raha tha jo vahi apna nikal aaya
mira ik ajnabi se duur ka rishta nikal aaya
abhi tak to tiri yaden miri miras thiin lekin
tasavvur men kahan se ik naya chehra nikal aaya
vo dariya hai ye kahne men mujhe ab sharm aati hai
mujhe sairab kya karta vo ḳhud pyasa nikal aaya
isi ummid par sab ashk men ne sarf kar Daale
agar in motiyon men ek bhi sachcha nikal aaya
vo meri zindagi bhar ki kama.i hi sahi lekin
main kya karta vahi sikka agar khoTa nikal aaya
mujhe us bazm men yaad aa ga.iin tanha.iyan apni
main sab ko chhoḌ ke us bazm se tanha nikal aaya
mujhe charon taraf se manzilon ne gher rakkha tha
yahan se bhi nikalne ka magar rasta nikal aaya
andhera tha to ye saare shajar kitne akele the
khuli jo dhuup to har peḌ se saaya nikal aaya
