Gaye' the' hum kisi ke' ghum mein shaamil hone'

Gaye' the' hum kisi ke' ghum mein shaamil hone',
Socha tha humne' bhi jo gaya so gaya,
Yeh zindagi toh aane' jaane' ka doosra naam hai,
Jo guzar gaya so beet gaya.

Magar wahan pahunchkar naa jaane' kaise',
Main  unn beete' hue' palon mein kho gaya,
Uss marhoom ki woh tasveerein dekhkar,
Udasi ke' sagar mein doob gaya.

Haan, humein bhi yeh khabar thi ke',
Zindagi toh chali chalti hai,
Humare' naa chahte' hue' bhi,
Kabhi kuch ghum-e-dastaan sunati hai.

Magar aakhir kab tak inn khayalon mein,
Hum yoonhi khoye' raheinge'?
Ghum aur khushi shayad din aur raat ke' doosre' naam hain,
Jinhe' apne' apne' andaaz mein kubool karna,
Hum sab ke' liye uss Parvar Digar ke' paigham hain.
