larazne wale laraz rahe hain
larazte jhonke

guzarte bal khate rengte sarsaraate jhonke
nisai malbus ki tarah sarsarane wale

kadakne wali ki chabukon se
agarche daur-e-rawan ke aansu tapak rahe hain

magar nazar jis taraf bhi uthti hai dekhti hai
guzar rahe hain guzarne wale

ye kaun dubka hua is aawara raste mein khada hua hai
ki jaise sabun ka koi rangin bulbula ho

zamin ke bachpan mein jo bhi shai thi wo na-shanasa-e-arzu thi
shabab aaya to rengne wali reng uthi

aur aaj ye haal hai ki har shai ye chahti hai
ki ek tufan ban ke girae raston mein

ye kaun dubka hua us aawara raste mein khada hua hai
ki jis tarah bahte bahte aawaz ruk ke ye sochne lagi ho

ki ju-e-sahra bahegi kab tak
ye zindagi ek ju-e-sahra hai bah rahi hai

larazne wale laraz rahe hain
magar nazar jis taraf bhi uthti hai dekhti hai

guzar rahe hain guzarne wale
