ek takhti amn ke paighaam ki — Aziz Nabeel

charaagh ki thartharaati lau mein har os qatre mein har kiran mein
tumhaari aankhein kahaan nahin thiin tumhaaraa chehra kahaan nahin thaa

roz dastak si koi detaa hai siine mein 'nabil'
roz mujh mein kisi aavaaz ke par khulte hain

khaamushi TuTegi aavaaz kaa patthar bhi to ho
jis qadar shor hai andar kabhi baahar bhi to ho

phir nae saal ki sarhad pe khaDe hain ham log
raakh ho jaaegaa ye saal bhi hairat kaisi

saare sapne baandh rakhe hain gaThri mein
ye gaThri bhi auron mein baT jaaegi

tumhaaraa saath agar ho to joD saktaa huun
vo silsila jo sar-e-daastaan TuuT gayaa
