Wo Barg-e-KHushk Tha Aur Daman-e-bahaar Mein Tha

wo barg-e-KHushk tha aur daman-e-bahaar mein tha

numud-e-nau ki bashaarat ke intizar mein tha

meri rafiq-e-safar thin hasad bhari nazren

wo aasman tha aur mere iKHtiyar mein tha

bikhar gaya hai to ab dil nigar-KHana hai

ghazab ka rang us ek naqsh-e-e'tibar mein tha

ab aa gaya hai to viraniyon par tanz na kar

tera makan isi ujDe hue dayar mein tha

likhe the nam mere qatl karne walon ke

ajib baat hai main bhi isi shumar mein tha

mujhe tha zoam magar main bikhar gaya 'mohsin'

wo reza reza tha aur apne iKHtiyar mein tha
