Dost Ki Yaad Se Badi Koi Daulat Nahi Hoti;
Sath Rehna Hi Dost Ki Jarurat Nahi Hoti;
Duriyan Kardeti Hai Yadoon Ko Jinda;
Warna Yadoon Ki Koi Keemat Nahi Hoti!
Kadmo Ki Duri Se Dilo Ke Fasle Nahi Badte;
Dur Hone Se Dosti Ke Ehsaas Nahi Marte;
Kuch Kadmo Ka Fasla Hi Sahi Hamare Bech;
Par Koi Pal Nahi Jab Aapko Hum Yaad Nahi Karte!
Kabhi Ek Lamha Aisa Bhi Aata Hai;
Jisme Beeta Hua Kal Nazar Aata Hai;
Bas Yaaden Reh Jati Hai Yaad Karna Ke Liye;
Aur Waqt Sab Kuch Lekar Guzar Jata Hai!
Maghrib Ki Waadion Mein Goonji Azaan Hamari;
Thamta Na Tha Kisi Se Sail-E-Rawaan Hamara!
Yeh Mat Kehna Ke Teri Yaad Se Rishta Nahi Rakha;
Mein Khud Tanha Raha Dil Ko Magar Tanha Nahi Rakha;
Tumhari Chahton Ke Phool Tu Mehfooz Rakhey Hain;
Tumhari Nafraton Ki Peerh Ko Zinda Nahi Rakha!
Uthe Hain Jab Yeh Haath Duaon Ko;
Rab Se Tere Liye Hi Fariyaad Karte Hain;
Tu Humein Bhulla Bhi De To Kya;
Hum To Tumhe Har Pal Yaad Karte Hain!
Unki Yaad Mein Sab Kuch Bhulla Baithe Hain;
Chiraag Khusiyo Ke Bujha Baithe Hain;
Hum To Marenge Unki Baahon Mein;
Ye Bhi Shart Maut Se Lagaa Baithe Hain!
Saarey Maahol Mein Khusboo Hai Teri Yaadon Ki;
Hum Ne Gham-Khaney Ko Bhi Phoolon Sey Saja Rakha Hai!
Yaad Aati Hai Jo Marhoom Tamannaaon Ki;
Bhool Jaata Hun Ke Mehroom-E-Tamanna Hun Main!
Bichri Hui Raahon Se Jo Guzrey Hum Kabhi;
Har Gham Par Khoyi Hui Ik Yaad Mil Gayi!
