unki aankhon se badhkar zamaane mein koi zeenat nahi thi,
par unke dil mein hamare ashkon ki bhi koi keemat nahi thi..

jin aankhon mein hamne jannat paa li thi maano,
aaj gaur se dekha to unmein hamari zaroorat nahi thi.

aaj suna hai ki unhe hamse kabhi mohabbat nahi thi,
mugaalta hamein hoga, unhe to jhooth bolne ki aadat nahi thi.

shayad hum unke layak nahi rahe honge,
par is berukhi se dil todna, ye unki bhi sharafat nahi thi.

aaj aankh ponchi to khoon ka rang tha rumaal par,
jaane kisne badddua di, aisee to kisise adaavat nahi thi.

unki gali ke kisi kone mein simatkar beithe rahe raat bhar,
bahut roye hum, chain se sone ki hamein izaazat nahi thi.

mujhe mere gam ke saath is jahan se ruqsat kar do,
youn beqas, bebas jeene ki 'majrooh' ko kabhi chahat nahi thi.
