nahin main nahin hun
kisi dusre ne mujhe main kaha hai

to mein ho gaya hun
nafas khinchta hun

magar zindagi meri khwahish nahin hai
mujhe zindagi ne chuna hai

lihaza mere faisle zindagi kar rahi
main rota nahin hun

meri aankh se os ke phul
gham ki hawaen giraati hain

kaliyan hansi ki
mere lab pe khilti nahin hain

khushi ki bahaaren khilati hain
khud aati jati hain dil mein tamannaen

main kab bulata hun
(meri kamai

faqat na-rasai hai)
main ne mohabbat bhi kab muntakhab ki hai

us ne mujhe apni fahrist mein likh liya hai
mujhe khwab aate nahin hain

so khwabon ne tai kar liya hai
ki aainda wo meri aankhon ke boson se

koson ke lambe safar par chalenge
nahin main kawi bhi nahin hun

mujhe nazm likhti hai
main nazm likhta nahin hun
