do hi kirdar the kahani mein
donon hi mar gae jawani mein

log lashen nikal pae bas
ishq duba hua tha pani mein

zindagi jal chuki thi lakdi si
rakh bas bach gai nishani mein

mod aaya tha main muda hi nahin
ho gai bhul zindagani mein

tha 'sachin' shakhs ek mere jaisa
aur wo main tha bad-gumani mein
