Main Apni Sochon Mein Ek Dariya Bana Raha Tha

main apni sochon mein ek dariya bana raha tha

jo TuTi phuTi si kashtiyon ko chala raha tha

tumhaare jaane ke baad bilkul hansa nahin main

shikasta-pa ho ke apne andar ko kha raha tha

wo band kamre mein meri yaaden piro rahi thi

main bazm-e-imkan se KHwab jis ke uTha raha tha

meri nigah mein ye ek manzar ruka hua hai

ki ek sahra tha aur dariya bana raha tha

wo tere aane ki thi KHushi ki 'atiq-ahmad'

jo ghar mein qaidi the sab parinde uDa raha tha
