be-sabab to na thin teri yaaden
teri yaadon se kya nahin sikha

zabt ka hausla badha lena
aansuon ko kahin chhupa lena

kanpti dolti sadaon ko
chup ki chadar se dhanp kar rakhna

be-sabab bhi kabhi kabhi hansna
jab bhi ho baat koi talkhi ki

mauzu-e-guftugu badal dena
be-sabab to nahin teri yaaden

teri yaadon se kya nahin sikha
