Dil me dard tha par chupana pada hume,
Palko pe nami liye hi hum muskura liye.
Humare naseeb me kahan thi khushbu yaaron,
Humne to sookhi daaliyon se hi dil behla liye.
Na bahon ka sahara tha na sukoon bhari god koi,
Humne to raho par pattiyon se hi chadar bana liye.
Jis gaanv me kabhi masumiyat ghuli hoti thi fizaao me,
Aaj wahi logon ne kuch maikhane saja liye.
Humare askon ka sara mohalla mazak banata tha,
To humne tanhai me ro ro kar saare ansu sukha liye.
Ab khanjaro me voh tadpan kahan reh gayi hai dost,
Zakhmo ko hara karna tha to rahon se pathar utha liye.
Armano ka kya hai inhe toh yun bhi tootna hi tha,
Acha hi kiya jo usne ye adhure sapne chura liye.
Kaun jane kis raah se hokar aa jaaye voh maut,
Humne shamshaan par hi kuch ghar bana liye
Palko pe nami liye hi hum muskura liye.
Humare naseeb me kahan thi khushbu yaaron,
Humne to sookhi daaliyon se hi dil behla liye.
Na bahon ka sahara tha na sukoon bhari god koi,
Humne to raho par pattiyon se hi chadar bana liye.
Jis gaanv me kabhi masumiyat ghuli hoti thi fizaao me,
Aaj wahi logon ne kuch maikhane saja liye.
Humare askon ka sara mohalla mazak banata tha,
To humne tanhai me ro ro kar saare ansu sukha liye.
Ab khanjaro me voh tadpan kahan reh gayi hai dost,
Zakhmo ko hara karna tha to rahon se pathar utha liye.
