Jast

mera haal ye tha

zamistan mein jab barf-zaron mein chalte hue

gurisna bheDiyon ki qataren guzartin

to mein kapkapata

ye ji chahta arsa-e-zist ko chhoD kar

kohsaron ke us par Dera laga lun

idhar mere jate hi barfen pighal jaen

gurgan-e-be-mehr mere nuqush-e-qadam sungh kar mujh tak aane na paen

magar ab to jaise

meri ruh mein koi chita sa angDaiyan le raha hai

ye ji chahta hai

ki gurg-e-ashti ki sabha jab lage

main bhi taswir jaisi khuli aankh le kar

jo hargiz jhapakti na ho

ghaar ke wast mein aan baiThun

aur un mein se jis jis ki aankhen jhapakti chali jaen

wo lahza lahza mera rizq ho

main use para-para karun
