kabhi kabhi main ye sochta hun ki mujh ko teri talash kyun hai
ki jab hain sare hi tar tute to saz mein irtiash kyun hai

koi agar puchhta ye hum se batate hum gar to kya batate
bhala ho sab ka ki ye na puchha ki dil pe aisi kharash kyun hai

utha ke hathon se tum ne chhoda chalo na danista tum ne toda
ab ulta hum se to ye na puchho ki shisha ye pash pash kyun hai

ajab do-rahe pe zindagi hai kabhi hawas dil ko khinchti hai
kabhi ye sharmindagi hai dil mein ki itni fikr-e-maash kyun hai

na fikr koi na justuju hai na khwab koi na aarzu hai
ye shakhs to kab ka mar chuka hai to be-kafan phir ye lash kyun hai
