jab bhi chidiyon ko bulakar pyar se daane diyen,
is nai tahjeeb ne is par kai taane diyen.
jin ujalon ne kiya andhi gufaon se riha,
bediyan pahna ke hamne unhe tahkhane diyen.
humne maangi thi jara si roshni ghar ke liye,
aapne jalti hui basti ke najrane diyen.
haadse aise bhi gujren unke aur hamare darmiyan,
lab rahe khamosh aankho ne afsaane diyen.
jindgi ab tak khusboo se isliye mahroom hai,
humne jismon ko chaman roohon ko veerane diyen.
maut ka matam nahi maatam hai is baat pe unne,
murde bhi nahi kabron me dafnane diyen.
aasmano ko bhi sajdo ke liye jhukna pada,
wo bhi kya sadiyan thi jinne aise deewane diyen.
jindgo chadar hai dhul kar saaf ho jayegi fir,
isliye humne bhi isme daag ag jane diyen.
