Zindagi ki udaas raahon per
tu mili bhi ghari do pal ke liye
Main nazar utha kar tarap gaya
Tu nazer jhuka kar chali gayi
Wo waqt bara ajeeb tha aaya
Main zindagi key liye taras gaya
Teri rah mian taktaa reh gaya
Tu apni dhun main guzer gayi
Ye mohabat howi bhi to kesi howi
Main ek pal ko hi mila tum sey
Agley lamhey tu bichar gayi
Ek pal main so khuwaab jiya main
Aankh khuli to zindagi bikhar gayi
Wo nazrana bara ajeeb tha
Jab mian unmain uljha raha
Or tum nazer bacha kar guzar gayi
Dhoondh raha tha us pal tum main khud ko
ik tum be‘wafa thien jo muskura ker chalbasi ...
