kiijiye kyaa guftaguu kyaa un se mil kar sochiye 
dil-shikastaa Khvaahisho.n kaa zaayaqaa rah jaayegaa 

dard kii sarii tahe.n aur saare guzare haadase 
sab dhuaa.N ho jaaye.nge ek vaaqiyaa rah jaayegaa 

ye bhii hogaa vo mujhe dil se bhulaa degaa magar

ye agar TuuTe kabhii to faasalaa rah jaayegaa
