guftugu der se jaari hai natije ke baghair — Aitbar Sajid

abhi rail ke safar mein hain bahut nihaal donon
kahin rog ban na jaae yahi saath do ghaDi kaa

kisi ko saal-e-nau ki kyaa mubaarakbaad di jaae
calender ke badalne se muqaddar kab badaltaa hai

ab to khud apni zarurat bhi nahin hai ham ko
vo bhi din the ki kabhi teri zarurat ham the

ek hi shahr mein rahnaa hai magar milnaa nahin
dekhte hain ye aziyyat bhi gavaara kar ke

main takiye par sitaare bo rahaa huun
janam-din hai akelaa ro rahaa huun

phuul the rang the lamhon ki sabaahat ham the
aise zinda the ki jiine ki alaamat ham the
