Ba yak waqt tabaah hua nagar woh kaise
Ba yak waqt tabaah hua nagar woh kaise
Be shak saazish thi maana magar woh kaise
Kya dhadakte dilon ki parwa na thi kisi ko
Chale they kal raat be tahasha khanjar woh kaise
Hamwaar na they raaste they dagar woh kaise
Haail they zurur lekin be nazar woh kaise
Kya kor chashm they hum ya woh posheedah
Kyon narm dil baney hain sang e marmar woh kaise
Kyon dunya hai bikhri aaj idhar udhar kaise
Humsaaz humnawa na koi humsafar kaise
Amn o chain na taskeen na bardaasht koi
Theek to hoga khudaya tu bata’sahil’ ko magar kaise
Ashok sawhny Sahil
