Chalte-chalte thak gaye hain raste bhi ab,
Manzilon ki talab mein kho gaye hain sab.
Ek khwaab tha jo palkon pe rakha tha kabhi,
Ab ashkon ki nami mein bheeg gaya hai wahi.
Hawa se kuch keh ke aayi hai ye raat,
Tera naam phir se le aaya hai jazbaat.
Kuch lafz bache hain, kuch chuppiyan bhaari hain,
In dil ki galiyon mein yaadein awaara si sawaari hain.
