Aaj bahut din bad socha ki kuch likhun,
Kya likhun ki ab to hathon par nami si aai hai,
Vo syahi jo kagaz pe roshni beekherti thi,
Mere jehan-o-saku pe phail si aai hai.
Koshish kiye hazaar par na hua mukammal,
Dastaan-e-ishq humari yu bankar samne aai hai,
ye hatash mann nahi mera jo dastak de raha hai dar pe,
Waqt ki kami hai jo humare rishton pe phail aai hai.
