Sahra ki tra deer say pyasa tha wo shayad

Gum sum hova, avaz ka darya tha jo ek shakhas

Pathar bhi ni ab wo sitara tha jo ek shakhas

Shayad wo koi harf-e-vafa dhond rha tha

Chehron ko bray ghoor say parta tha jo ek shakhas

Sahra ki tra deer say pyasa tha wo shayad

Badal ki tra toot k barsa tha jo eik shakhas

Ay teez hva koi khabar us k jnoon ki

Tanha safar shook pay nikla tha jo eik shakhas

Ab akhri satroon main kahin nam hy us ka

Ahbab ki fehrist main pehla tha jo ek shakhas

Hathon main chupay hovay phirta hy kai zakham

Sheeshay k khilonon say bahelta tha jo ek shakhas

Mur mur k usay dekhna chahin mri ankhin

Kuch dor mujhay chornay aya tha jo ek shakhas

Ab us nain bhi apna liay dunya k kreenay

Say ki rfakat say bhi darta tha jo ek shakhas

Har zehan main kuch naksh-e-vafa choor gia hy

Kehnay ko bhray shehar main tanha tha jo ek shakhas
