mujh pe ilzam dhar gaya dekho
aankh ashkon se bhar gaya dekho

koi raushan zamir tha shayad
aur andheron mein mar gaya dekho

jis ne rakkha tha sar hatheli par
wo bhi duniya se dar gaya dekho

dil ko kitna sambhaal rakkha tha
us ko dhundo kidhar gaya dekho

kis qadar ajnabi sa lagta hai
baad muddat ke ghar gaya dekho

mujh ko 'daem' yaqin se bichhde
ek arsa guzar gaya dekho
