Din saleeke se uga raat theekane se rahi
dosti apni bhi kuch roz zamane se rahi
chand lemho ko hi banti hain musavvir* aakhein
zindagi roz to tasveer banane se rahi
is andhere mei
76e
N to thokar hi ujala degi
raat jungle mein koi shama jalane se rahi
faasla, chaand bana deta hai, har pathar ko
door ki roshni nazdeek to aane se rahi
shehar mein sabko kahan milti hai rone ki jagah
apni izzat bhi yahan hassne hasaane se rahi
