Yun to tanhai mein ghabrae bahut

yun to tanhai mein ghabrae bahut
mil ke logon se bhi pachhtae bahut

aise lamhe zist mein aae bahut
hum ne dhoke jaan kar khae bahut

ye nahin malum ki kya baat thi
ro rahe the mere ham-sae bahut

tum hi batla do ki koi kya kare
zindagi jab bojh ban jae bahut

hum faraaz-e-dar tak tanha gae
do qadam tak log sath aae bahut

shahr-e-gham jaisa tha waisa hi raha
yun jahan mein inqalab aae bahut

Dubna 'aKHtar' tha qismat mein likha
waise hum tufan se Takrae bahut
