Parinda awaal darje ka maine paya...

Yeh baithe-baithe kahan kho gaye ho tum... 

Kaun sa gunah yaad aaya...

Jo tumko Khuda yaad aaya...

Bade arse se yeh kahi chupa pada tha... 

Aaj yeh aansoo dhulak aaya... 

Aag apne hi lagate hai zindagi mein... 

Hawan dene ka kaam gairon ke hisse aaya...

aur

Muddaton baad koi shaks mila hai apne sa...

Jise maine khud se Shikayat karte hue hai paya... 

Giraft mein uski chuthkar woh fhurr se uda gaya... 

Parinda awaal darje ka maine paya...

aur

Hazaron aaine tootkar bikhar gaye... 

Magar woh sach na bola...

Ik shaks maine bhi bada fankar paya...
