ek pal ke bikhre, anjaan chehre
chhipe hue madhoshiyon mein
guzarne lagi jo khayalon mein aisi paheliyan
chain nahi ki kya kahun
khidmat mein himmat se
kya kahun, kahin tham si jaun
labon mein simat ke
ki kahun ya rehne dun
waqt ki bandishen
maafiyon mein uljhi kyun
kehti rahun
khali, sooni, bekhayali, ankaheen ye dillagi
junoon se rubaru aise, khoon se
kab kahun
kaise, anginat sawaalon mein
jawab dun, par palat dekh
unhi alfaazon mein
ki kya kahun
ki kyun kahun
ki kaise kahun
kisko kahun
aankhen band karun
toh dikhte kuch yun
palak jhapakte moond lun
nasamjhe sambhalte kuch yun
jaane dun ya pakad lun
rakh lun ki mod dun
raaste ajnabi, paheliyan dabi si
log beintehaa hanste
main khoyi khoyi si
ki kahin kho gayi
kisko kahun, kaun sune
kya ijaazat teri
kya haqeeqat meri
