Kuch safr-e-zeest bhi lamba tha,..

Kuch safr-e-zeest bhi lamba tha,
Kuch ham bhi thora sust chaly,
Kuch ham hi apny dushman thy,

Kuch dushman ham ko boht mily,
Kuch ham manzil ko bhool gay,
Kuch rasty ham ko sakht mily,
Aur aaj ye apni halat hai,
Har simt andhera chaya hai,

Har simt hai chaayi veerani,
Har simat isi ka saya hai,
Is dasht main ham ny kya khoya,
Is raah main ham ny kia paya,

Jab main ny is par ghor kia,
To man main soch ka dip jala,
Ik aag si dil main bharrak uthi,
Aur aankh main pani bharr aaya..
