Ek Shakhs Purana Yad Aaya

Bikhri Bikhri Shaamon Mein,
Sehmi Sehmi Raaton Mein,

Tanha Tanha Lamhon Mein,
Gum Sum Gum Sum Baaton Mein,

Kuch Guzra Zamana Yaad Aaya,
Aaj Gosha-e-Tanhai Mein, Ek Shakhs
Purana Yaad Aaya,

Kaghaz Ki Tahreeron Mein,
Dhundli Si Tasveeron Mein,

Ek Chehra Anjana Yaad Aaya,
Wo Parhna Usay Kitabon Mein Aur,

Dhoondna Usay Khuwabon Mein,
USay Panay Ki iS KoShiSh Mein,

Meri Neend Ka Jana Yaad Aaya,
Aaj Gosha-e-Tanhai Mein, Ek ShakhS Purana Yad Aya...
