Khaab meiN soyaa thha maiN, kissne jagaaya mujhko?
Kisski  aawaaz  ne   andar   se   bulaaya   mujhko?
Kaun  hooN   maiN?  ye kisi  ne  na bataaya mujhko
Aaj tak mujh se kisi   ne   na   milaaya   mujhko
Man  ke  kuchh  aur  taQaaze  haiN, mere tan ke  aur 
Mujh  se milne naheeN  deti,   meri   kaayaa  mujhko
Raat  ho, Dinn  ho, azakhaana  ho,   maikhaana  ho
ChhoRtaa hee  naheeN  tanhaayi   ka  saayaa  mujhko
Lafz harr tol  ke  bolo, kahaa  karte  thhe  buzurg
Ye  saleeQaa  magar  ab  tak  naheeN  aayaa  mujhko
Raat   ke   dariyaa  ke  uss paar  suhaana  dinn  hai
ThhapkiyaaN   deke  shab-e-gham ne sulaayaa mujhko
Ab to   aakaash  hee aakaash  hai aur  meri  uRaan  
Vehm   ke  saayoN   ne   go   laakh daraaya   mujhko
