bad-guman aaj sari mahfil hai
jaane kis rah kis ki manzil hai

haal-e-dil hum bayan karen kaise
shahar ka masala muqabil hai

umr biti hai meri sahra mein
dur tak dariya hai na sahil hai

sath chalna hai un ki majburi
do kinaron ki ek manzil hai

wo meri ghazlon ka hi hai hissa
wo kahan zindagi mein shamil hai

dil meri ek bhi nahin sunta
kaisa gustakh ye mera dil hai
