aah bhi harf-e-dua ho jaise
ek dukhi dil ki sada ho jaise

wo hai khamosh to yun lagta hai
hum se rab ruth gaya ho jaise

nam likh likh ke mitata hai mera
ye bhi ek naqsh-e-wafa ho jaise

dil ke aaine mein hai ek chehra
koi shai dhund raha ho jaise

zindagi ungh rahi hai ai 'josh'
kisi muflis ka diya ho jaise
