rang chehre pe ghula ho jaise
aaina dekh raha ho jaise

yaad hai us se bichhadne ka saman
shakh se phul juda ho jaise

har qadam sahte hain lamhon ka azab
zindagi koi khata ho jaise

yun jaga deti hai dil ki dhadkan
us ke qadmon ki sada ho jaise

zindagi yun hai gurezan 'sarwat'
hum ne kuchh mang liya ho jaise
