usi ki tarah mujhe sara zamana chahe
wo mera hone se ziyaada mujhe pana chahe

meri palkon se phisal jata hai chehra tera
ye musafir to koi aur thikana chahe

ek banphul tha is shahr mein wo bhi na raha
koi ab kis ke liye laut ke aana chahe

zindagi hasraton ke saz pe sahma-sahma
wo tarana hai jise dil nahin gana chahe
