Badal gaye hum

Samajh rahe the mujhe anjaan woh

Haar gaye the hum unke bharose mein,

Chhu na paye unke mann ko dil se,

Is dard-e-lafzon ko ashkon ki dawa si mil gayi.

Rehna to nahi chahte the unke dil mein hum,

Par khwaabon mein mere usne jagah bana li.

Hasti thi jab woh, hazaaron gham kurbaan hote,

Is dard-e-khamoshi ko mohabbat ki hawa si lag gayi.

Jagmagake gayi woh mere har lamhon ko,

Ab andheron mein muskura raha hoon main.

Ummeedon mein subah chhupi hai meri,

Is dard-e-zindagi ko ek duwa si mil gayi.
