zindagi tujh se kisi roz bichhad jaunga
ek patte ki tarah shakh se jhad jaunga

waqt ke sath badalna hi padega mujh ko
ped ki tarh hawaon se ukhad jaunga

mujh se mat ruth mera sath nibha de kuchh roz
ek din aaega main aap bichhad jaunga

zer kar lega tujhe bhi teri khwahish ka tilism
main bhi haalat ke afsun se pachhad jaunga

zat us ki hi to ek mera sahaara hai 'matin'
kya karunga main agar us se bichhad jaunga
