gumsum c rehguzar thi , kinara nadi ka tha
pani mein chaand , chaand mein chehra kisi ka tha

ab zindagi sanbhal k leta hai tera naam
yeh dil k jis ko shoq kabi khudkushi ka tha

kuch abr b they banjh zameen se daray hue
kuch zaiqa hava mein meri tishnagi ka tha

kehney ko dhoondtey the sabhi apne khad-o-khaal
warna meri ghazal mein to sab kuch usi ka tha

woh ehtiyaat-e-jaan thi k be rabti-e-khayal
saye pe b guman muje admi ka tha

mushkil kahan the tarak-e-mohabbat k marhalay
ay dil magar saval teri zindagi ka tha

woh jis ki dosti hi mataa-e-khaloos thi
mohsin woh shakhs b mera dushman kabi ka tha
