ab unhein nazar aate hain hum gunehgaaron ki tarah

dard baaki hai mere dil main nasoor ki tarah,
aaskh har roz bardhta hai darakhon ki tarah,

jinki aankho ne kabhi humko khuda mana tha,
ab unhein bhi nazar aate hain hum gunehgaaron ki tarah,

har shaam aankhon se pighalte hain dil ke kuch arrma,
fail jaate hain phir palkon pe sitaaron ki tarah,

har ghadi pyaas ka manjar dikhaayi deta hai,
meri haalat hai nadiyon ke kinaaron ki tarah,

main khushi koi agar khoj bhi loon to kaise,
meri kismat khadi hai har aur diwaaron ki tarah,

tumne dekha nahi ho gar to mujhe hi dekh lo,
zindgi jiski hai sandhuk me pardi kitaabon ki tarah.
