Kya hai ghum jo hain hum do kinaro ki tarah,
Na hui zeast jo apni bhi baharon ki tarah.
Is ishq ne kitnon ka chaman loot liya,
Hue ek hum bhi barbad hazaron ki tarah.
Kaliyan murjha si gayin dil ka chaman lut sa gaya.
Ab to ye phool bhi lagte hain shararon ki tarah.
Rah ke zamin pe mil na sake hum "adil",
Chalo ab arsh pe milte hain sitaron ki tarah.
