KHak Sahraon Ki Palkon Pe Saja Li Humne

KHak sahraon ki palkon pe saja li hum ne

zindagi jaisi mili hans ke nibha li hum ne

jam-e-gham pite rahe mai ka sahaara na liya

darmiyan dard ke ek rah nikali hum ne

shahr-dar-shahr phire dasht-o-daman mein bhaTke

masnad-e-qais dil-o-jaan se sambhaali hum ne

hum bhi ashkon ki tijarat ka hunar rakhte hain

ashk arzan the bahut sharh baDha li hum ne

lamha lamha tere ehsas ne karwaT badli

raat KHwabon pe jami gard haTa li hum ne

hum se puchha tha kisi ne ki mohabbat kya hai

be-KHudi mein teri taswir bana li hum ne

ruTh kar shahr-e-nigaran ke chalan se 'zakir'

apni duniya hi bahut dur basa li hum ne
