Asir-e-zat-e-raushni

na lazzaton ka bahr tha na KHwahishon ki wadiyan

na daere azab ke na zawiye sawab ke

bas ek raushni asir-e-zat thi

muhit kaenat thi azal se be-libas thi

to yun hua ki dafatan

mere badan ke pairahan mein chhup gai

to lazzaton ka bahr mauj-zan hua

to KHwahishon ki wadiyan sulag gain

to daere azab ke phisal gae

to zawiye sawab ke machal gae

ajib waqia nahin

mere badan ka pairahan to lazzaton ke tar mein buna gaya

wo KHwahishon ke bahr mein jo mauj mauj bah gaya

to kya hua

ye raaz raaz rah gaya

wo raushni jo qabl-e-irtikab hi

mere badan ke pairahan mein jaguzin thi

sad-irtikab kyun hui nahin
