aap daulat ke taraazuu me.n dilo.n ko taule.n
ta.ng aa chuke hai.n kashmakash-e-zindagii se ham
vaise to tumhii.n ne mujhe barbaad kiyaa hai
tujh ko KHabar nahii.n magar ik saada-lauh ko
mai.n zindagii kaa saath nibhaataa chalaa gayaa
mataa-e-Gair
na mu.nh chhupaa ke jiye ham na sar jhukaa ke jiye
jahaa.n jahaa.n tirii nazro.n kii os Tapkii hai
miltii hai zindagii me.n mohabbat kabhii kabhii
ye mahlo.n ye taKHto.n ye taajo.n kii duniyaa
lahu nazr de rahii hai hayaat
dekhaa hai zindagii ko kuchh itne qariib se
jab tum se mohabbat kii ham ne tab jaa ke kahii.n ye raaz khulaa
ko.ii to aisaa ghar hotaa jahaa.n se pyaar mil jaataa
ham to samjhe the ki ham bhuul ga.e hai.n un ko
hazaar barq gire laakh aa.ndhiyaa.n uTThe.n
tujhe bhulaa de.nge apne dil se ye faisla to kiyaa hai lekin
maanaa ki is zamii.n ko na gulzaar kar sake
dil ke mu.aamale me.n natiije kii fikr kyaa
le de ke apne paas faqat ik nazar to hai
kabhii KHud pe kabhii haalaat pe ronaa aayaa
vo afsaana jise anjaam tak laanaa na ho mumkin
phir kho na jaa.e.n ham kahii.n duniyaa kii bhii.D me.n
abhii zinda huu.n lekin sochtaa rahtaa huu.n KHalvat me.n
tumhaaraa naam kisii ajnabii ke lab par thaa
bas ab to daaman-e-dil chho.D do bekaar ummiido
kaun rotaa hai kisii aur kii KHaatir ai dost
