qahqahe hawaon mein bikhar gae
kursiyan aur tablen

viran ho gain
sham phir udas ho gai

ek be-nam soch mein
dub gai

jaise ghar ke kude-dan mein
mudi tudi si koi chiz

mil gai
jaise chalte chalte rah mein

koi baat
yaad aa gai

khali hain gilas
khali hain botalen

zindagi bhi khali hai
khali botalon ki tarah

sham phir udas ho gai
ek be-nam soch mein

dub gai
