Dasht-o-sahra Ki Kahan Ab Zindagani Chahiye

dasht-o-sahra ki kahan ab zindagani chahiye

aur agar aisa hai to honTon ko pani chahiye

sochta hun mere dil tak kis tarah pahunche koi

be-nishan ghar ke liye kuchh to nishani chahiye

putliyon par raqs karna hi kalam-e-fan nahin

dard ke aansu ko to paiham rawani chahiye

ek sunahra KHwab meri nind ko darkar hai

KHwab ko bhi nind hi ki pasbani chahiye

raat guzri hai hisar-e-karb mein ai 'mazhari'

sham ab dil ke liye koi suhani chahiye
