ye salaakhen humne khud ghadi hain
ye deewaren hamare isharon per khadi hain
ye sang humne apni zaat per jo khaaye
ye hamaari nakurda gunahon ki jhadi hain
chalo acha hua sazaayen pehle say taye theen
warna hamari maangon say uski maangen badi hain
badi dair say haath aya hai khird ka daman
deewanon ki ankhen moqadar say kub ladi hain
maazi ki baazi pe chal gaya chaal haal apna
aur kal ke her ek pal say sherten judi hain
waade iraade khwab si tilsimati shaamen
kub say zindagi ka ihaata kiye khadi hain
jhulsa na dein tera pairahan serd aahen
ye be aab ankhen kitna khud say ladi hain
Aaj phir uski khamoshi ney
mujh say kuch kaha hai
Aaj phir deewangi ku
khud say gila hai
Aakhir kya hai yaqeen ki surat
kya mohabbat ko kabhi chehra mila hai
koi dil may kahan samaya
koi nazdik bhi na aaya
kyon phir riqabaton ka
ek laamatnaahi silsila hai
sargoshion may jo gunjta hai
meri her soch, sochta hai
jo mujh say na mil ke bhi mila hai
kyon hai phir ye be-qarari
kya dil ki lagi kabhi haari
gar zabt hai tou walwala hai
masaayeb zindgi ka rukan hain
in say ghabrana kaisa nadan
yehi tou admiyet ka sila hai
gul pal do pal ki mehek hain
yaad jub talak javidaan hai
her pal khila khila hai
mera tu na khayaal kar
ke mai tere khayaal ki hun nafi
mere dost vo mai hi thi
jisey chaha nahi tu ne kabhi
ek ehsaan tha tera iltifaat
karam hi tou thi teri nigah bhi
do pal ka dilasa tha vo waqt
pal do pal ki thi her khushi
mere khayaal ki hi chah thi
ye meri tujh say wabastagi
vo junun mahaz ek khwaab tha
ab her ehsaas lagta hai ajnabi
azmaish gar shert hai ishq ki
na yaad aa phir mushkil may bhi
koi dum nikal jaayega dum
phir na kehna,meri jaan gaii
sulag uthi hai ye khamoshi
shola hui shabnum ki tashnagi
sang-e-meel hai tera lafz lafz
meri saans saans hai teri agahi
maana ke bekaran hai tera jahaan
kabhi hum ko bhi yaad hi kar sahi
aisa na ho ke mai, mai na rahun
tu ho saamne, nazar na aaye koi
na bana ulfat ke tu daayerey
mushq ye kahin teherti hi nahi
jo luta rangon ke bazaar may
us rangrez ki aaj koi qeemat nahi
