be-dili kya yunhi din guzar jaenge
sirf zinda rahe hum to mar jaenge

raqs hai rang par rang ham-raqs hain
sab bichhad jaenge sab bikhar jaenge [...]

ret bhari hai in aankhon mein aansu se tum dho lena
koi sukha ped mile to us se lipat ke ro lena

us ke baad bahut tanha ho jaise jangal ka rasta
jo bhi tum se pyar se bole sath usi ke ho lena [...]

main aahen bhar nahin sakta ki naghme ga nahin sakta
sakun lekin mere dil ko mayassar aa nahin sakta

koi naghme to kya ab mujh se mera saz bhi le le
jo gana chahta hun aah wo main ga nahin sakta [...]

mustaqil mahrumiyon par bhi to dil mana nahin
lakh samjhaya ki is mahfil mein ab jaana nahin

khud-farebi hi sahi kya kijiye dil ka ilaj

panw padta hua rasta nahin dekha jata
jaane wale tera jaana nahin dekha jata

teri marzi hai jidhar ungli pakad kar le ja
mujh se ab tere alawa nahin dekha jata [...]

zist daman chhudae jati hai
maut aankhen churae jati hai
thak ke baitha hun ek dorahe par
dopahar sar pe aae jati hai
