hum ko tum ko sab se pahle darmiyan rakkha gaya
phir kahin ja kar zamin par aasman rakkha gaya

ya'ni awwal tum hamari ninw mein rakkhe gae
ya'ni is buniyaad par sara jahan rakkha gaya

kul mila kar bas isi ek baat ka dukh hai hamein
hum yahan ke the hi kab hum ko yahan rakkha gaya

ek sitam ye hai ki kuchh hum be-jabin rakkhe gae
ek sitam ye bhi ki but ko be-zaban rakkha gaya
