wo juda ho ke khud hua tanha
aur mujh ko bhi kar gaya tanha

main bhi kuchh is tarah se tanha hun
jaise mazlum ki sada tanha

chandni to bhatakti phirti thi
chand bhi raat bhar raha tanha

yaad teri wahan chali aai
mujh ko dekha jahan zara tanha

aao us ko bula ke late hain
raat kat jaegi bhala tanha

us ko rukhsat to kar diya 'zahid'
phir na jaane kahan gaya tanha
