dil ne aisa kabhi na socha tha
jo bhi dekha tha ek dhoka tha

mujh ko uryaniyon ka gham kyon tha
jab ki sara hujum nanga tha

andhe ghaaron ki samt bhej diya
main ne rasta kisi se puchha tha

zindagi husn kaenat hasin
khwab aankhon ne ek dekha tha

kis liye dil ki dharti banjar thi
abr to be-hisab barsa tha

raushni mein na kuchh nazar aae
hae sara nagar hi andha tha

ab bhi zakhmi hain 'raj panw mere
jaane kis dasht se main guzra tha
