nae khwabon se dar lagne laga hai
ye rasta pur-khatar lagne laga hai

ye kaisa daur aaya be-hisi ka
mujhe zindan ghar lagne laga hai

bichhad jaega tu mujh se kisi din
na lagta tha magar lagne laga hai

zara dekho meri sada tabiat
ki qatil chaaragar lagne laga hai

safar mein ham-safar tum kya hue ho
safar ab mukhtasar lagne laga hai

'khalil' us se tumhein nafrat thi lekin
tumhein kyun mo'atabar lagne laga hai
