chand badli mein nihan tha hum ne ye jaana nahin
waqt ki tarikiyon mein khud ko pahchana nahin

zindagi ki shorishon mein wo kahan kaise hain ab
bhul jaenge wo hum ko hum ne ye jaana nahin

chal rahi hain kyon zamin pe nafraton ki aandhiyan
hum to sab ahl-e-zamin hain koi begana nahin

us ke sajde ka saliqa to nahin aaya mujhe
wo kamal-e-husn hai ye raaz an-jaana nahin
