Kuch gumsum si bann gayi thi zindagi,
dost yaar bhi khoo gye the kahi.
Kuch pakki dosti ne bhi chuppi saad li thi,
kuch paas hokar bhi door ho gye the.

Vo khaamoshi bhi dooriyo mei badal gyi thi,
apne dukh baatne ke liye bacha tha na koi.
Gum ko chupane ka bhi zaariya na koi bacha tha,
aasoon bhi saaf karane ke liye sahara ban kar tha na koi.

Vo choti si hassi to dikh rhi thi sabko,
uske piche ki tanhai samajh paaya na koi.
Vo sehmi si bann gyi thi zindagi,
vakt kaatne ke liye bhi na tha koi yaar.
Ek do geero ne phir bhi khidmat ki haal chaal lene ki,
apne to ho gye the begaane, mere yaar!
