Sar E baam E hijr diya bujha to khabar hui
Sar E shaam koi judaa hua to khabar hui

Mera khush kharam balaa ka tez kharam tha
Meri zindagi se chala gaya to khabar hui

Mere saare harf, tamaam harf azaab the
Mere kam sukhan ne sukhan kiya to khabar hui

Koi baat ban ke bigaR gayi to pata chala
Mere bewafaa ne karam kiya to khabar hui

Mere hamsafar ke safar ki samt hi aur thi
KahiN raastaa koi gum hua to khabar hui

Mere Qissa go ne kahaN kahaN se baRhayi baat
Mujhe daastaaN ka siraa mila to khabar hui

Na woh mausam E rang rez, na dil, na maiN
Koi khaab tha K bikhar gaya to khabar hui
