Humne bewaffao ko ajmana chhod diya
Ab logo ko pyaar dikhana chhod diya

U to ulfato mein bhi dastaan sunai jati hai
Maslan yeh hai humne ab usko batana chhod diya

Log dill mein khajaana samjh kar rakhte hai unko
Magar humne voh manhuus khajana chhod diya

Chand kisi din fursat se puchuga tujhe kii
Tune ab taaro ko kyu chamkana chhod diya

Jo sirhaana pasand usse ussper hi hum aahe bharte the
Ab humne voh bistar-sirhana chhod diya…

Jo baat sahi hai uski samjh mein hum bhi raazi hua karte the
Koi shaq hi nhi ki ab humne jwaab mein sir hilanaa chhod diya…

Badan kisi or ne chuaa hai uska yeh haqiqat hai
Aaj humne uske kareeb aana chhod diya…
