umr bhar jis pe takiya raha kuchh na tha dil nahin manta
umr bhar jis pe takiya rahā kuchh na thā dil nahīñ māntā
kyā karūñ tajzyoñ kā aTal faisla dil nahīñ māntā
kauñd kar ek lamha jo phir jā milā vaqt ke abr meñ
chhoḌ degī use vaqt kī māmtā dil nahīñ māntā
ghup-añdhere se letī hai kyūñ-kar janm raushnī kī lagan
ye karishma nahīñ hai kisī sham.a kā dil nahīñ māntā
ḳhushk hī kyuuñ na ho jaa.e dariyā mirā lahr ban ban ke maiñ
DhūñDhnā chhoḌ duuñ ḳhushkiyoñ kā sirā dil nahīñ māntā
apne markaz ko ik vahm samjhā kiyā aql kā dā.era
jis ko kuchh apne dām-e-kashish ke sivā dil nahīñ māntā
us kī tasvīr ko dekhte dekhte ye huā kyā mujhe
ya.anī behis hai tasvīr kī har adā dil nahīñ māntā
dil meñ kuchh hai zabāñ se nikaltā hai kuchh baat aisī hai kuchh
merā matlab 'muhib' koī pā jā.egā dil nahīñ māntā
umr bhar jis pe takiya raha kuchh na tha dil nahin manta
kya karun tajzyon ka aTal faisla dil nahin manta
kaund kar ek lamha jo phir ja mila waqt ke abr mein
chhoD degi use waqt ki mamta dil nahin manta
ghup-andhere se leti hai kyun-kar janm raushni ki lagan
ye karishma nahin hai kisi shama ka dil nahin manta
KHushk hi kyun na ho jae dariya mera lahr ban ban ke main
DhunDhna chhoD dun KHushkiyon ka sira dil nahin manta
apne markaz ko ek wahm samjha kiya aql ka daera
jis ko kuchh apne dam-e-kashish ke siwa dil nahin manta
us ki taswir ko dekhte dekhte ye hua kya mujhe
yani behis hai taswir ki har ada dil nahin manta
dil mein kuchh hai zaban se nikalta hai kuchh baat aisi hai kuchh
mera matlab 'muhib' koi pa jaega dil nahin manta
