Hum to bachpan mein bhi akele the

hum to bachpan mein bhi akele the
sirf dil ki gali mein khele the

ek taraf morche the palkon ke
ek taraf aansuon ke rele the

thin saji hasraten dukanon par
zindagi ke ajib mele the

KHud-kushi kya dukhon ka hal banti
maut ke apne sau jhamele the

zehn o dil aaj bhuke marte hain
un dinon hum ne faqe jhele the
