Sau Khuluus Baaton Mein Sab Karam Khayaalon Mein
Bas Zaraa Vafaa Kam Hai Tere Shahar Vaalon Mein

[Khuluus=sweetness]

Duusaron Ko Hamaarii Sazaayen Na De
Chaandanii Raat Ko Bad-Duaayen Na De

Phuul Se Aashiqii Kaa Hunar Siikh Le
Titaliyaan Khud Rukengii Sadaayen Na De

Jahaan Ped Par Chaar Daane Lage
Hazaaron Taraf Se Nishaane Lage

Huii Shaam Yaadon Ke Ik Gaanv Men
Parinde Udaasii Ke Aane Lage

Kal Nazar Aaya Woh Chehra Jo Kabhi Thaa Itne Kareeb Ki
Palkon Ke Niche Un Shokh Akhon Ki Gaharaee Mein

Padha Sakte The Hum Dher Se Khayalat Apne Bare
Jab Hum Dekhte Reahte Un Aakhon Ko Iktak

Aansuuon Kii Jahaan Paayamaalii Rahii
Aisii Bastii Charaagon Se Khaalii Rahii

Dushmanon Kii Tarah Us Se Ladate Rahe
Apanii Chaahat Bhii Kitanii Niraalii Rahii

Musaafir Ke Raste Badalate Rahe
Muqaddar Mein Chalanaa Thaa Chalate Rahe

Koii Phuul Saa Haath Kaandhe Pe Thaa
Mere Paanv Sholon Pe Chalate Rahe

Kahaan Aansuuon Kii Ye Saugaat Hogii
Naye Log Honge Naii Baat Hogii

Main Har Haal Men Muskuraataa Rahuungaa
Tumhaarii Muhabbat Agar Saath Hogii

Aa Chaandanii Bhii Merii Tarah Jaag Rahii Hai
Palakon Pe Sitaaron Ko Liye Raat Khadii Hai

Ye Baat Ki Suurat Ke Bhale Dil Ke Bure Hon
Allaah Kare Jhuuth Ho Bahuton Se Suunii Hai

Yun Hi Besabab Na Phiraa Karo, Koi Shaam Ghar Bhi Rahaa Karo
Vo Gazal Ki Sachchi Kitaab Hai, Use Chupake Chupake Padaa Karo

Koi Haath Bhi Na Milaayegaa, Jo Gale Miloge Tapaak Se
Ye Naye Mizaaj Kaa Shahar Hai, Zaraa Faasale Se Milaa Karo

Ye Chiraag Benazar Hai Ye Sitaaraa Bezubaan Hai
Abhii Tujhase Milataa Julataa Koii Duusaraa Kahaan Hai

Vahii Shakhs Jisape Apane Dil-O-Jaan Nisaar Kar Duun
Vo Agar Khafaa Nahiin Hai To Zaruur Badagumaan Hai
