Chhupa Rakkha Tha Yun KHud Ko Kamal Mera Tha

chhupa rakkha tha yun KHud ko kamal mera tha

kisi pe khul nahin paya jo haal mera tha

har ek pa-e-shikasta mein thi meri zanjir

har ek dast-e-talab mein sawal mera tha

main reza reza bikharta chala gaya KHud hi

ki apne aap se bachna muhaal mera tha

har ek samt se sang-e-sada ki barish thi

main chup raha ki yahi kuchh maal mera tha

tera KHayal tha taza hawa ke jhonke mein

jo gard uD ke gai hai malal mera tha

main ro paDa hun 'tabassum' siyah raaton mein

ghurub-e-mah mein shayad zawal mera tha
