Tujhe zindagi ka shaoor tha, tera kya bana?
Tu khamosh kyon hai mujhe bata, tera kya bana?
Wo nasib se teri jang thi, meri bhi thi,
Main tou kamyab na ho saka, tera kya bana?
Nai manzilon ki talash thi so bichar gaye,
Main bichar k tujh se thatak gaya, tera kya bana?
Mein muqable mein shareek tha faqat is liye,
Koi mujh se aa k bhi poochta, tera kya bana?
Mujhe ilm tha k shikast mera naseeb hai,
Tu umeed-war tha jeeta ka, tera kya bana?
