ruk gaya aankh se bahata hua dariya kaise
gam ka toofaan to bahut tez tha thahara kaise

mujhako kud par bhi bharosa hone paata
log kar lete hain gairon pe bharosa kaise

har ghadi tere kayaalon mein ghira rahata hoon
milana chaahoon to miloon kud se main tanaha kaise

aur bhi ahal-e-khirad ahal-e-junuun the maujuud
lut gaye ham hi teri bazm mein tanaha kais
