zindagi yun thi ke jeene ka bahana tu tha
hum faqat zaib-e-hikayat the, fasana tu tha
**
hum ne jis jis ko bhi chaha tere hijran mein, woh log
aate jaate huye mausam the, zamana tu tha
**
ab ke kuch dil hi na maana ke palat kar aate
warna hum dar-ba-daron ka to thikana tu tha
yaar aghayaar ke haathon mein kamanein thi ‘Faraz’
aur sab dekh rahe the ke nishana tu tha
