ab us ka wasl mahnga chal raha hai
to bas yaadon pe kharcha chal raha hai

mohabbat do-qadam par thak gai thi
magar ye hijr kitna chal raha hai

bahut hi dhire dhire chal rahe ho
tumhaare zehn mein kya chal raha hai

bas ek hi dost hai duniya mein apna
magar us se bhi jhagda chal raha hai

dilon ko todne ka fan hai tum mein
tumhaara kaam kaisa chal raha hai

sabhi yaron ke maqte ho chuke hain
hamara pahla misra chal raha hai

ye 'tabish' kya hai bas ek khota sikka
magar ye khota sikka chal raha hai
