Safar aisa hai kahan ka

jis jahan mein meri aawaz ne mujhe chhoDa tha
wo ab meri samaat se pare hai

mujhe kuchh sunai nahin deta
mushkil ye hai ki aadmi bahut kuchh sun sakta na dekh sakta hai

phir bhi shayad kuchh aisa hota hai ki
kisi bhi marne wale aadmi ki

aankhon ki kagar par jab us ki
jaan Thahar jati hai

tu us ke nam ka parinda
use achanak uDa le jata hai

ye maut hoti hai
siwae is ke ki marne wala use dekh nahin sakta

mujhe yaad nahin
ki main ne kis se mohabbat ki

aur kis se nafrat ki
siwae is ke ki main ne wo sare gunah kiye

jo mujhe is liye yaad hain
ki ek umr tak unhen

mujh mein rachaya basaya aur khilaya pilaya gaya
mujhe yaad hai

ki main ne koi aisi ghiza nahin khai
jo meri ruh mein utar jati

mujhe yaad hai
ki main ne koi aisa libas nahin pahna

jo mere baatin mein utar jata
main zindagi bhar bhuka raha

aur nanga raha
yahan tak ki mere pas

rah-e-haq mein kuchh dene ke liye bhi nahin
na koi neki na koi burai
