karen salam use to koi jawab na de

uski ek duniya hun main aur meri ek duniya hai wo

duniya luTi to dur se takta hi rah gaya

mujhe na dekho mere jism ka dhuan dekho

shishe ka aadmi hun meri zindagi hai kya

ana ne TuT ke kuchh faisla kiya hi nahin

teri zamin se uThenge to aasman honge

zindagi wadi o sahra ka safar hai kyun hai

na ku-e-yar mein Thahra na anjuman mein raha

mohabbaton mein jo miT miT ke shahkar hua

raat bhar tanha raha din bhar akela main hi tha

ru-ba-ru un ke koi harf ada kya karte

main kab rahin-e-reg-e-bayaban-e-yas tha

labon par pyas ho to aas ke baadal bhare rakhiyo

mishal-ba-kaf kabhi to kabhi dil-ba-dast tha
