ek ajnabi ki tarah hai ye zindagi mere sath
ik ajnabī kī tarah hai ye zindagī mire saath
jo vaqt kaaT rahī hai hañsī-ḳhushī mire saath
sunā rahā huuñ kisī aur ko kathā apnī
khaḌā huā hai koī aur aadmī mire saath
safar meñ peḌ kā saayā nahīñ milegā mujhe
bas itnā sunte hī dīvār chal paḌī mire saath
vo mujh ko pahle bhī tanhā kahāñ samajhtā thā
phir us ne merī udāsī bhī dekh lī mire saath
sunā hai haal batāne se dard ghaTtā hai
so ek roz charāġhoñ ne baat kī mire saath
alaav jaltā rahā jab talak maiñ chaltā rahā
maiñ ruk gayā to kahānī bhī ruk ga.ī mire saath
ek ajnabi ki tarah hai ye zindagi mere sath
jo waqt kaT rahi hai hansi-KHushi mere sath
suna raha hun kisi aur ko katha apni
khaDa hua hai koi aur aadmi mere sath
safar mein peD ka saya nahin milega mujhe
bas itna sunte hi diwar chal paDi mere sath
wo mujh ko pahle bhi tanha kahan samajhta tha
phir us ne meri udasi bhi dekh li mere sath
suna hai haal batane se dard ghaTta hai
so ek roz charaghon ne baat ki mere sath
alaw jalta raha jab talak main chalta raha
main ruk gaya to kahani bhi ruk gai mere sath
