surḳh-ru nazron men hone ka bahana chahun
jo mire paas hai sab tujh pe ganvana chahun
paas hi chashma ubalta hai ye malum na tha
tishnagi chal ki tiri pyaas bujhana chahun
lahren sahil se lipaTne ko machal jaati thiin
tujh ko manzar main vahi yaad dilana chahun
vo ki har lamha miri ruuh ko sairab kare
main ki har raat bichhaḌne ka bahana chahun
tum to zarḳhez zamin pa ke bhi mayus hue
main to sahraon men bhi ḳhvab ugana chahun
kuuch kar ja.unga pau phaTte hi manzil ki taraf
aaj ki raat musafir huun Thikana chahun
main ne anjane jaziron ka safar chhoḌ diya
yaar ki basti men phir lauT ke aana chahun
zindagi teri paheli to kaThin hai lekin
tujh ko pa.un to isi ruup men paana chahun
