Hamare Jismon Mein Din Hi Ka Zahr Kya Kam Tha

hamare jismon mein din hi ka zahr kya kam tha

barahna raat bhi aai to sabz mausam tha

halakaton ka sila qatilon se kya milta

ki qatra qatra lahu ka nazar mein shabnam tha

bikharne TuTne ka silsila tha rahon mein

tamam KHwabon ka tabir-nama matam tha

garan hai miTTi ka TuTa hua piyala ab

yahi wo hath hain kal jin mein saghar-e-jam tha

ghisaT rahe the zamin par hazar-ha insan

umid-o-bim ka har ek charagh maddham tha

main zindagi se shanasa hun is qadar 'ishrat'

nigah uThti thi jis samt hu ka aalam tha
