Padauv..!

Na jaane kitne saaye hain
Jo kathne ko daudte hain
Raat ki siyah chadar
Bin sitaron ka, benoor aasmaan
Chand khauf se kahin chipa hai
Haath ko haath sujhai na de
Zindagi ka yeh padauv bada bhayanak hai
Naumidi apne uruj pe hai
Nakami ka silsila ravan hai
Umeed o aas timtima rahi hai
Dil apne iradon pe atal
Zahen ghutne tek chuka
Na ladne ki ichcha
Na jeet ki zid 
Sogwaar mahol
Bistar, qabar
Khamushi
Aur mein!
