aage tum ho to jafaon ka qalaq yaad nahin
dil wo bachcha hai jise pahla sabaq yaad nahin

kya bataen ki thi kya subh-e-azal wo surat
is kadi dhup mein aariz ki shafaq yaad nahin

jaane kis gam khulen us ke tabassum ke rumuz
aa chuke kitne hi nairang ufaq yaad nahin

umr-e-rafta mein tera nam bhi likkha tha kahin
le gaya kaun uda kar wo waraq yaad nahin

jabr-e-duniya mein wo collage ka zamana bhula
the kitabon mein likhe kaun se haq yaad nahin

jang se masale hal karne chale ho logo
tumhein tarikh ka ek ek sabaq yaad nahin
