Woh to ik rahguzar tha, usay manzil samajh baithi
Ik aashna tha, use hamsafar samajh baithi

Ik tajarba tha, use haasil samjh baithi
Ik zarra tha jo meri poori kainaat thi
Ik goshe to apni kainat ka mehvar samjh baithi

Aankh jab khuli to reza reza ho gaye khwaab saare
Ik katra tha jisse samandar samajh baithi

Pashemaani ke siwa ab kucch haath nahin
Ik pathar tha jisse main apna sanam samajh baithi

Liye phirti hoon apni ghamgeen yaadon ka bojh
Ik saraab tha jisse apni meraaj samjh baithi

Apne lutte khwaabon ko daaman mein liye phirti hoon
Woh to khud ek talabmand tha jisse charaagar samajh baithi
