hum DhunDte phirte rahe taswir hawa ki

hum yahan rahte hain apni hi nigahbani mein

koi bhi chiz yahan waqt-e-zarurat na mili

chhaTi hai rah se gard-e-malal mere liye

aks kya dida-e-tar mein dekha

maslub aaftab sar-e-sham kyun hua

humne zahir kiya suKHan mein bahut

ek qatra na kahin KHun ka baha mere baad

ja-ba-ja aag bichai thi kabhi

hum apne aapko phir aazma ke dekhenge

yaqin kaise karunga guman mein rahta hun
