Apni Ana Ke Waaste Kya Kya Nahi Kiye
Rona Tha Jis Maqaam Pe Hum Muskura Diye
Is Tarah Bhi Hayat-e-basar Apni Hogai
Mehfil Mein Jaa Ke Hans Liye Ghar Aake Roo Liye
Sar Par Hai Aasmaan Na Pairon Tale Zameen
Is Haal Mein Bataiye Kab Tak Koi Jeeye
Majbooriyon Ke Paon Ki Zanjeer Tum Hue
Hum Bhi Tumhari Yaad Mein Patthar Ke Holiye
Sare Badan Peh Pyaas Ka Baadal Baras Padha
Aankoh Se Nikle Aab Ko Kab Tak Koi Piye
Ghum Hogae Nigaah Se Manzil Ke Sab Nishaan
Andhi Hawa Se Bujh Ga’e Ummed Ke Diye
Hairat Zada Hai Log Bahut Mujhko Dekh Kar
Main Aa Gaya Hoon Bheed Mein Ehsaas Ko Liye
