pas-e-aina khad-o-khal mein koi aur tha
koi samne tha khayal mein koi aur tha

jo dinon ke dasht mein chal raha tha wo main na tha
jo dhadakta tha mah-o-sal mein koi aur tha

koi aur tha mere sath daur-e-uruj mein
mere sath ahd-e-zawal mein koi aur tha

jise said karna tha dam mein wo chala gaya
wo jo rah gaya tere jal mein koi aur tha

thi zamin raunat-e-rad-o-barq se muzmahil
pas-e-abro-baad-e-jalal mein koi aur tha
