ham to bachpan men bhi akele the
sirf dil ki gali men khele the
ek taraf morche the palkon ke
ek taraf aaNsuon ke rele the
thi saji hasrate.n dukaano par
zindagi ke ajib mele the
aaj zehan-o-dil bhuko.n marte hai.n
un dino.n faake bhi ham ne jhele the
Khud-kashi kyaa Gamo.n ka hal banati
maut ke apane bhi sau jhamele the
