zindagi khaak na thi, khaak urhake guzri

zindagi khaak na thi, khaak urhake guzri
tujhse kia kehte, tere paas jo aate guzri

din jo guzra to, kisi yaad ki ro main guzri
shaam aayi to, koi khwaab dikhaate guzri

ache waqton ki tamanna main rahi umar-e-rawan
waqt aisa tha ke, bas naaz uthate guzri

raat kia aayi ke tanhai ki sarghoshi main
tujhse kia kehte, tere paas jo aate guzri

  ghum ka aalam tha magar sunte sunate guzri
tujhse kia kehte tere paas jo aate guzri
