wo chup tha dida-e-nam bolte the
ki us ke chehre se gham bolte the

sabab khamoshiyon ka main nahin tha
mere ghar mein sabhi kam bolte the

yahi jo shahr ka hai aaj markaz
yahan sannate paiham bolte the

taraste hain usi tanhai ko hum
koi sunta tha aur hum bolte the

koi bhi ghar mein jab hota nahin tha
dar-o-diwar baham bolte the

unhin se bolna sikha tha hum ne
wahi jo bazm mein kam bolte the
