naujawan kaun hai to
aaya hai kis nagri se

nam kya hai tera
kya kaam hai aakhir mujh se

main samajhta hun ki is waqt munasib nahin aana tera
tu ne kis zoam mein is waqt pukara hai mujhe

tu ne kya soch ke dastak di hai
aaj ki shab mere soe hue darwaze par

naujawan kaun hai tu
naujawan jo bhi hai tu

faisla soch samajh kar ye kya hai main ne
lakh dastak koi de aaj ki raat

ghar ka darwaza kisi par bhi na ab kholunga
chahe mehman ho ya koi hawa ka jhonka

sach to ye hai ki mujhe
ab to un taza hawaon se bhi dar lagta hai

naujawan thik sahi
to mujhe jaanta hai main bhi tujhe jaanta hun

thi mulaqat teri aur meri aaj se barson pahle
lekin ab us ka ye matlab to nahin

tu samajh kar mujhe ham-umr apna
jab bhi chahe mere darwaze pe de kar dastak

ratjage mil ke manane ke liye
mujh ko bulane aa jae

ja miyan aur kahin mujh ko pareshan na kar
