Ek muddat tak main uski zarorat bana raha

Ek muddat tak main uski zarorat bana raha
Phir yun hoa k uski zarorat badal gai..

Chalta raha sath mery wo bohat der tak
Phir yun hoa k uski manzil badal gai..

Wo aksar kehta tha aadat he meri toot kr payar krna,
Pir yun hoa k ek din uski aadat badal gai..

Us ny khwabo me tameer kia ta ek taaj mehal,
Pir yun hoa k us k khwabo ki tabeer badl gai..

Yad aya wo aaj bohat shiddat syphr youn huwa k,
meri zindgi ki sham dhal gai
