wo sab parinde jo ud ke jate hain faslon mein
kahin bahut dur faslon mein

so un ke bare mein ye to sab jaante hain, aakhir kahin koi ek ya
dusri jagah aisi aa hi jati hai, wo jahan thak ke baith jaen

wo koi mastul ya koi banjar chattan hoti hai jis ko pa kar wo sochte hain
ki ye bhi kuchh kam nahin bahut hai,

magar bhala kaun is haqiqat ko jaan kar ye guman karega ki un se aage
wahan kushada faza nahin, ya wo ek aisa maqam hai, jis se aage

parwaz ka kisi tarah koi imkan hi nahin hai
hamare sare azim ustad aur sab pesh-rau bhi aakhir kahin pahunch kar

thahar gae the
so aisa hi mere sath hoga

so aisa hi tere sath hoga
nae parinde to aage hi jaenge

magar han
yahi basirat yahi yaqin hum mein aur un mein muqable ka sabab hai

jo hum se aur hamari salahiyat se buland ho kar faza ki wusat mein dekhta hai
ki kuchh parinde hain hum se badh kar jawan tawana

aur un tawana jawan parindon ke ghol koshan hain aaj bhi us jagah
jahan par hum apni sari salahiyat aazma chuke hain

jahan har ek chiz hai samundar
jahan har ek chiz hai samundar

hum ab kahan jaen
ye samundar

batao kya hum ise kabhi par kar sakenge
ye aarzu ab kahan hamein le ke ja rahi hai

usi taraf kyun
ki jis taraf jaane wale insaniyat ke sabab jagmagate khurshid

chhup gae hain
kabhi hamare liye bhi shayad yahi kaha jaega kisi din

ki hum ne maghrib ki samt gahre samundaron mein safar kiya tha
umid ye thi ki hum ko mashriq mein ek nai sarzamin milegi

magar muqaddar ye tha ki ai dost
be-karani se ja ke takraen aur hum pash pash ho jaen

ya mere dost shayad
