kya sarokar ab kisi se mujhe
wasta tha to tha tujhi se mujhe

be-hisi ka bhi ab nahin ehsas
kya hua teri be-rukhi se mujhe

maut ki aarzu bhi kar dekho
kya ummiden thin zindagi se mujhe

phir kisi par na e'tibar aae
yun utaro na apne ji se mujhe

tera gham bhi na ho to kya jina
kuchh tasalli hai dard hi se mujhe

kitna purkar ho gaya hun ki tha
wasta teri sadgi se mujhe

kar gae kis qadar tabah 'ziya'
dushman andaz-e-dosti se mujhe
