ek iztirab sa sine mein har ghadi hai mujhe
thahr ai zindagi ek baat puchhni hai mujhe

idhar se jab bhi guzarna ho to pukara kar
andhere mein teri aawaz raushni hai mujhe

ajib tarah ki tanhai hai mere ghar mein
har ek chiz udasi se dekhti hai mujhe

main ab to kashti-e-jaan mein sawar ho chuka hun
so dekhiye kahan le ja ke chhodti hai mujhe

mujhe bata jo kabhi lautta ho guzra waqt
ki phir se tujh mein wahi baat dekhni hai mujhe

main us se tark-e-talluq to kar bhi lun lekin
na jaane kaun si ummid rokti hai mujhe

main apne tutte ghar ki hun aakhiri ummid
so ishq bhar nahin har baat sochni hai mujhe
