kuchh iss tarah tanha ho gaye hum to

chand chhune ko woh machalte rahe,
hum yahan sham ki tarah dhalte rahe,

wafa ke naam pe woh wafa badalte rahe,
hum to sirf mayusi se hath malte rahe,

hum to bas iss raste pe baithe hi rahe,
aur woh to dusre raste pe chalte rahe,

kuchh iss tarah tanha ho gaye hum to,
aankh se apne aanshu yun hi nikalte rahe,

woh to parwane hain, unka thikana kya,
aag ki tarah hum zindagi bhar jalte rahe.
