ye shafaq chand sitare nahin achchhe lagte
tum nahin ho to nazare nahin achchhe lagte

gahre pani mein zara aao utar kar dekhen
hum ko dariya ke kinare nahin achchhe lagte

roz akhbar ki jalti hui surkhi padh kar
shahr ke log tumhaare nahin achchhe lagte

dard mein dubi faza aaj bahut hai shayad
gham-zada raat hai tare nahin achchhe lagte

meri tanhai se kah do ki sahaara chhode
zindagi bhar ye sahaare nahin achchhe lagte
