jalta nahin aur jal raha hun
kis aag mein main pighal raha hun

mafluj hain hath panw mere
phir zehn mein kyun ye chal raha hun

ek bund nahin lahu ki baqi
kis baat par main machal raha hun

tum jhut ye kah rahe ho mujh se
main bhi kabhi be-badal raha hun

kyun mujh se hue gunah sarzad
kahne ko to be-amal raha hun

rai ka bana ke ek parbat
ab us pe yunhi phisal raha hun

kis hath se hath main milaun
ab apne hi hath mal raha hun

kyun aaina bar bar dekhun
main aaj nahin jo kal raha hun

ab kaun sa dar raha hai baqi
is dar se main kyun nikal raha hun

qadmon ke tale to kuchh nahin hai
kis chiz ko main kuchal raha hun

ab koi nahin raha sahaara
main aaj phir se sambhal raha hun

main kyun karun aasman ki khwahish
ab tak to zamin pe chal raha hun

ye barf hatao mere sar se
main aaj kuchh aur jal raha hun

mujh ko na pilao koi pani
pyason ke main sath chal raha hun

khane ki nahin rahi talab kuchh
ab bhuk ke bal pe pal raha hun
