taaza hain aaj tak
teri sohabaton ke pal
teri ahaton ka muntazar
hai ye rooh ka safar
teri yaadon se jul uthey
hain phir charagh-e-dil
hawaon may phir wahi
maanus mastani si mehek
shal jism-o-jaan may kahin
hai koii ruposh hum safar
dubte palon ki wahi hai tazgi
tanhai bhi hogai hai mokhtasar
her saans usi ki hai guftagu
wahi khayal hai mera chahragar
waqt ka carvan badh hi nahi saka
her jaa laga humein ek hi nagar
tune chin lein hissen hijr ki sabhi
khana-e-dil may tu rah gaya magar
zindagi zindagi na rahi
hogaii teri yaad zindagi
hai muamma ulfat teri
thi abhi tu nahi hai abhi
--------------------------
khamoshiyon ko dekha hai phir se jhinjod kar
waan bhi kuch nahi tha khamoshiyon ko chod kar
shaamil tha zindagi may jo shab-o-roz ki tarha
vo chal diya achanak mujh ko yon tanha chod kar
jo dil apni hi athkheliyon may taumar magan raha
anjan tha milti hai khushi chaadar ghum ki odh kar
zamaane bhar ke ghumon ka beda jisne gharq kar diya
chal diya tufaan ashna usey thapedon may chod kar
thi kise khabar shaam-e-ghum itni hogi taweel-ter
bund bund zindagi ka lejayegi yaadon se nichod kar
rang chahaton ke hasrathon say mil kar behel gaye
khwab jitne they zindagi ke chal diye muh mode kar
akhir ye dil apni zad se aage nikal hi na saka kabhi
ek tum hi they meri hasti ko rakhte they jod kar
aah, zindon ke darmyaan khud ko zinda nahi lagi
tumhari yaad ne thama hai baarha mujh ko daud kar
