Aaj baadlaon ke aaghosh mein chaand ko sotay dekha,
taaraon ko bhari raat mein rote dekha..
Jise maine chaaha ek muddat beetnay tak,
aaj usey maine kisi aur ka hote dekha..
Jiski aarzoo mein ek umr gawaadi,
usko seep ke saath gehraaiyaon mein khhotay dekha..
Jis moti ko sambhaale rakha apna muqaddar jaan kar,
kisi aur ko wo moti apne haar mein pirootay dekha?!
