jis se sare charagh jalte the

kaise ho kya hai haal mat puchho

jhankte raat ke gareban se

kuchh to apne liye bhi rakhna hai

wo bhi hamare nam se begane ho gae

jhuTi ummid ki ungli ko pakaDna chhoDo

hum jo pahle kahin mile hote

zindagi humse to is darja taghaful na barat

ye tamanna hai ki ab aur tamanna na karen

jab ye mana ki dil mein Dar hai bahut

wo ek KHwab jo phir lauT kar nahin aaya

ye alag baat ki wo mujhse KHafa rahta hai

but samajhte the jis ko sare log

mujhe KHabar na thi is ghar mein kitne kamre hain

koi shai ek si nahin rahti
