jab na aane ki qasam aapne kha rakkhi thi
jab na aane kī qasam aap ne khā rakkhī thī
maiñ ne phir kis ke liye sham.a jalā rakkhī thī
rakh diyā un ko bhī jholī meñ sitamgāroñ kī
maiñ ne jin hāthoñ se buniyād-e-vafā rakkhī thī
jāntā kaun bhalā kaise kisī ke hālāt
vaqt ne biich meñ dīvār uThā rakkhī thī
is liye chal na sakā koī bhī ḳhanjar mujh par
merī shah-rag pe mirī maañ kī duā rakkhī thī
kis liye mujh ko na suulī pe chaḌhāyā jaatā
munsifoñ ne ye mire sach kī sazā rakkhī thī
jab na aane ki qasam aap ne kha rakkhi thi
main ne phir kis ke liye shama jala rakkhi thi
rakh diya un ko bhi jholi mein sitamgaron ki
main ne jin hathon se buniyaad-e-wafa rakkhi thi
jaanta kaun bhala kaise kisi ke haalat
waqt ne bich mein diwar uTha rakkhi thi
is liye chal na saka koi bhi KHanjar mujh par
meri shah-rag pe meri man ki dua rakkhi thi
kis liye mujh ko na suli pe chaDhaya jata
munsifon ne ye mere sach ki saza rakkhi thi
