pahle hota tha bahut ab kabhi hota hi nahin
pahle hotā thā bahut ab kabhī hotā hī nahīñ
dil mirā kāñch thā TuuTā to ye rotā hī nahīñ
vo jo hañste the mire saath unheñ DhūñDūñ kahāñ
kaisī duniyā hai jahāñ kā koī rasta hī nahīñ
ek muddat se maiñ baiThī huuñ yahī aas liye
chāñd āñgan meñ mire kis liye utrā hī nahīñ
mujh ko ma.alūm nahīñ raunaq-e-mahfil kyā hai
dasht-e-tanhā.ī se dil merā nikaltā hī nahīñ
kyā ajab shaḳhs thā har baat pe ḳhush rahtā thā
vaqt kyā badlā ki vo DhūñDe se miltā hī nahīñ
pahle hota tha bahut ab kabhi hota hi nahin
dil mera kanch tha TuTa to ye rota hi nahin
wo jo hanste the mere sath unhen DhunDun kahan
kaisi duniya hai jahan ka koi rasta hi nahin
ek muddat se main baiThi hun yahi aas liye
chand aangan mein mere kis liye utra hi nahin
mujh ko malum nahin raunaq-e-mahfil kya hai
dasht-e-tanhai se dil mera nikalta hi nahin
kya ajab shaKHs tha har baat pe KHush rahta tha
waqt kya badla ki wo DhunDe se milta hi nahin
