Zubaan sili huee hai maana
dil to likhta hai phir bhi
uss ma ko ab to ho gya zamaana
na koi hoga aisa neymut ho jo bhi.

Sasural main yaad to roz aati hai
kahein ya na kahein yeh aur baat
woh babul ka laad aur pyar azeem hai
khaton main unndalte jazbaat. 

Fariyaad se lipte yeh khat ke aa bhi jao
O mehboob! dooriyon ki dushwari bahut huee
aaye gar woh saamney to bahar le aao
woh kahaniyan jo kaheen dabi huee.

Haalaat kab theek hongein
yeh ghareeb ki dua
ab sab theek bhi kar dein
ab bus bahut hua.

Dil main hee rehte likh kar
hasratein behteen dil hai sunta
phir likhta hai beyqaabu hokar
aur hazaron sawaal hai bunnta. 

Aazmaishon ki fehrist inmein
shukraguzaar se bol kuch
shikaaiyton ka zikr inmein
jali kati bhi suntey yeh kuch.

Dost ehbaab ki naadaaniyaan
saalon ke raaz hain dafan
uff beybaakiyyan aur siskiyaan
saath jaieyenge jaise ho qafan.

Zarroori se
dete sukoon
aadut se
bhare huay junoon.
