koi dariya bhi rawan hai mujh mein
sirf sahra hi kahan hai mujh mein

kya pata jaane kahan aag lagi
har taraf sirf dhuan hai mujh mein

jashn hota hai wahan raat dhale
wo jo ek khali makan hai mujh mein

ajnabi ho gain galiyan meri
jaane ab kaun kahan hai mujh mein

ek din tha jo kahin dub gaya
ek shab hai ki jawan hai mujh mein

tum jise dhund rahe ho 'athar'
ab wo insan kahan hai mujh mein
