Main mar mita to woh samjha ye inteha thi meri
Usay khabar he na thi, khak keemya thi meri
Main chup howa to woh samjha k baat khatm hovee
Phir uss k baad to awaz jabaja thi meri
Jo taana zan tha meri pooshashe dareedah par
Usi k dosh pe raki hovee quba thi meri
Main uss ko yaad karoon bhi to yaad ata nahi
Main uss bhool gya hoon yahi saza thi meri
Shikast de gya apna guroor he ussko
Wagerna uss k muqabil bisaat kia thi meri
Kahee dimagh kahee dil kahee badan he badan
Har ekse dosti yaari juda juda thi meri
Main uss ko dekta rahta tha hairato se Faraz
Ye zindagi se taaruff ki ibtedaa thi meri
Usay khabar he na thi, khak keemya thi meri
Main chup howa to woh samjha k baat khatm hovee
Phir uss k baad to awaz jabaja thi meri
Jo taana zan tha meri pooshashe dareedah par
Usi k dosh pe raki hovee quba thi meri
Main uss ko yaad karoon bhi to yaad ata nahi
Main uss bhool gya hoon yahi saza thi meri
Shikast de gya apna guroor he ussko
Wagerna uss k muqabil bisaat kia thi meri
Kahee dimagh kahee dil kahee badan he badan
Har ekse dosti yaari juda juda thi meri
Main uss ko dekta rahta tha hairato se Faraz
Ye zindagi se taaruff ki ibtedaa thi meri
