.............

rasm shiddat se nibhaate rahe
hum rote rahe wo rulaate rahe

lahoo aansoo ban ke behne laga
hum peete rahe wo pilaate rahe

daastan un k mashghalooN ki aksar
hum sunte rahe wo sunaate rahe

shab bhar chaiN se bistar per
wo sote rahe, hum phuslaate rahe

zakhm hi zakham haiN jigar per
wo batlaye, hum chhupaate rahe

badi mehnat se kamayi thi izzat
wo mehfil mehfil usse lutaate rahe

roshni hui gayab humare ghar se
wo jashn deewali ka manaate rahe

humare dil meiN khud reh kar Diya
hume apne dil se wo mitaate rahe
