Ye mere ant ka ikraar hai...

aakrosh k aagosh me,
khamosh se hum ho gaye,
khrodh k parivesh me,
hosh bhi humare ud gaye,

jo tha nahi,
vo saath dikhta tha,
jo tha sahi,
vo galat lagta tha,

veham me isi,
hum jite rahe,
khwab me kisi,
hum bas gaye,

ab ujad gaya vo aashiyana,
bikhar gaya hai sab,
zindagi chahti hai mujhe azamaana,
jaane ant hoga mera kab?

ke koi nahi hai,
bas main hi khud ka dushman,
ke sab sahi hai,
bas mere hi man me hai uljhan,

k kamzor hun main,
aaj bhi tera hi kyun khayal hai,
k bewafaa hun main,
kyu nahi mujhe khud se pyaar hai?

na dost ka daga,
na kisi ki berukhi,
na rehmat na dua,
na rahi ye zindagi,

k ab main saanse le raha hun,
par ginta nahi unhe,
k jaise ji to main raha hun,
aur maar raha hun tumhe,

khyalon k is bhavandar me,
ek saaya mandraata hai,
har pal vo mujhi me,
mujhe hi kho jaata hai,

is kashti ko saahil nahin,
samundar hi se pyaar hai,
dekhna doob jaye jo kahin,
to yahi iske ant ka ikraar hai...
