in logon mein rahne se hum beghar achchhe the
kuchh din pahle tak to sab ke tewar achchhe the

dekh raha hai jis hairat se pagal kar dega
aaine se dar lagta hai patthar achchhe the

nadida aazar badan ko ghaarat kar dega
zakhm jo dil mein ja utre hain bahar achchhe the

raat sitaron wali thi aur dhup bhara tha din
jab tak aankhen dekh rahi thin manzar achchhe the

aakhir kyun ehsan kiya hai zinda rakhne ka
hum jo mar jate to banda-parwar achchhe the

aankhen bhar aai hain 'faisal' dub gae hain log
in mein kuchh zalim the lekin aksar achchhe the
