koi ye kaise bataaye ke wo tanahaa kyon hai

wo jo apanaa thaa, wahee aaur kisee kaa kyon hai

yahee duniyaan hain to fir, ayesee ye duniyaan kyon hai

yahee hotaa hain to, aakhir yahee hotaa kyon hai?

ik jaraa haath badhaa de to, pakad le daaman

us ke seene mein samaa jaaye, humaaree dhadakan

itanee kurbat hain to fir faasalaa itanaa kyon hai?

dil-e-barabaad se nikalaa naheen abatak koi

ik loote ghar pe diyaa karataa hain dastak koi

aas jo toot gayee hain fir se bandhaataa kyon hai?

tum masarrt kaa kaho yaa ise gam kaa rishtaa

kahate hain pyaar kaa rishtaa hain janam kaa rishtaa

hai janam kaa jo ye rishtaa to badalataa kyon hai?
