ek faqat khud se gila baqi raha
warna is dil mein to kya baqi raha

ek taraf teri kami khalti rahi
ek taraf apna khala baqi raha

rah ki aasaniyan jati rahin
manzilon ka marhala baqi raha

zindagi-dar-zindagi chalti rahi
masala-dar-masala baqi raha

hum had-e-idrak se majbur the
hum se jo tha mawara baqi raha

ho rahenge hum bhi us ke ek din
han agar dil mein khuda baqi raha

shahr-e-dil ke ba-wafa jab kho gae
aakhirash ek be-wafa baqi raha

dil se teri yaad bhi rukhsat hui
aur ab kya moajiza baqi raha

ai dil-e-nakaam kuchh to kar guzar
ya abhi kuchh sochna baqi raha
