Chaahat ka rang tha na wafa ki lakeer thi
Qaatil k haath mein to hina ki lakeer thi
Khush hoon k waqt-e-qatl mera rang surkh tha
Mere laboN pe harf-e-dua ki lakeer thi
Main kaarvaaN ki raah samajhta raha jise
Sehra ki reit par wo hawa ki lakeer thi
Sooraj ko jisne shab k andheron mein gum kia
Mauj-e-shafaq na thi wo qaza ki lakeer thi
Guzra hai shab ko dasht se shaayad wo parda-daar
Har naqsh-e-pa k saath rida ki lakeer thi
Kal uska khat mila k saheefa wafa ka tha
Mohsin har ek satr haya ki lakeer thi
