jo sunna chaho to bol uTThenge andhere bhi
na sunna chaho to dil ki sada sunai na de

Waheed Akhtar

andhera itna nahin hai ki kuchh dikhai na de
sukut aisa nahin hai jo kuchh sunai na de

Waheed Akhtar

hazaron sal safar kar ke phir wahin pahunche
bahut zamana hua tha hamein zamin se chale

Waheed Akhtar

har ek lamha kiya qarz zindagi ka ada
kuchh apna haq bhi tha hum par wahi ada na hua

Waheed Akhtar

dasht ki uDti hui ret pe likh dete hain log
ye zamin meri ye diwar ye dar mera hai

Waheed Akhtar

ut banane pujne phir toDne ke waste
KHud-parasti ko naya har roz patthar chahiye

Waheed Akhtar

ichhDe hue KHwab aa ke pakaD lete hain daman
har rasta parchhaiyon ne rok liya hai

Waheed Akhtar

e-barse guzar jate hain umDe hue baadal
jaise unhen mera hi pata yaad nahin hai

Waheed Akhtar

aam o dar o diwar ko hi ghar nahin kahte
tum ghar mein nahin ho to makan hai bhi nahin bhi
