Pyas

dur se chal ke aaya tha main nange panw nange sar

sar mein gard zaban mein kaTne panw mein chhaale hosh the gum

itna pyasa tha main us din jitna chah ka mara ho

chah ka mara wo bhi aisa jis ne chah na dekhi ho

itne mein kya dekha main ne ek kuan hai suthra sa

jis ki man hai pakki unchi jis par chhanw hai peDon ki

chaDh kar man par jhanka main ne josh-e-talab ki masti mein

kitna gahra itna gahra jitni hijr ki pahli raat

kaisa andha aisa andha jaisi qabr ki pahli raat

kankar le ke phenka tah mein

pani ki aawaz na aai

us ka dil bhi KHali tha
