kabhi tum ne
kisi chhote se bachche ko

sisakte nind mein
bhigi hui aankhon se dekha hai

kabhi puchha hai khud se bhi
sabab is ka

kabhi socha hai tum ne
kis liye masum rota hai

kyun aankhen band apni jaan khota hai
khubi tum ne bhi apne bachpane mein

khwab boe the
kabhi sote mein roe the

tumhein bhi yaad kab hoga
sar-e-mizhgan sitaron ka chamakna aur bikhar jaana

ba-ru-e-barg-e-gul tahrir afsana
