kyun ghalat rah se bachaya na gaya
jaane kyun mod ke laya na gaya

manne wala meri baaton ko
jaane kyun mujh se manaya na gaya

sar-phiri tez hawa ke hote
dip ulfat ka bujhaya na gaya

ruh par sabt hua wo aisa
phir kabhi mujh se mitaya na gaya

kat gaya ped to aangan ka magar
mere sar se kabhi saya na gaya

jab bhi 'jazib' wo hua ham-awaz
git mujh se koi gaya na gaya
