har tamaashaa_ii faqat saahil se manzar dekhataa
kaun dariyaa ko ulaTataa kaun gauhar dekhataa
vo to duniyaa ko merii diivaangii Khush aa ga_ii
tere haathon mein vagarnaa pahalaa patthar dekhataa
AaNkh mein aansuu jate the par sadaa tujh ko na dii
is tavaqqo par ki shaayad tuu palaT kar dekhataa
merii qismat kii lakiire.n mere haatho.n me.n na thii.n
tere maathe par ko_ii meraa muqaddar dekhataa
zindagii phailii hu_ii thii shaam-e-hijraa.N kii tarah
kis ko itanaa hausalaa thaa kaun jii kar dekhataa
Duubane vaalaa thaa aur saahil pe cheharo.n kaa hujuum
pal kii mohalat thii mai.n kis ko aa.Nkh bhar ke dekhataa
tuu bhii dil ko ik lahuu kii buu.Nd samajhaa hai 'Faraz'
aa.Nkh gar hotii to qatre me.n samandar dekhataa
