Aisa Tah-e-aflak KHaraba Nahin Koi

aisa tah-e-aflak KHaraba nahin koi

us dasht se zinda kabhi lauTa nahin koi

haibat wo sadaon mein ki larze dar-o-diwar

guzre wo shab-o-roz ki soya nahin koi

viran si viran hui dhyan ki basti

chehra kisi chilman se jhalakta nahin koi

sar phoD ke lauT aati hai jati hai jo aawaz

kya gumbad-e-afaq mein rasta nahin koi

ek aisi masafat hai ki saat bhi kaThin hai

sadiyon ka safar aur kahin saya nahin koi

be-ism nahin khulta dar-e-ganj-e-tilismat

satron mein KHazine hain tamasha nahin koi

dekhi hai 'bashir' ahl-e-nazar ki bhi rasai

baaten meri samjhe mujhe samjha nahin koi
