Ajib Saanehaa Mujh Par Guzar Gayaa Yaaro
Main Apane Saaye Se Kal Raat Dar Gayaa Yaaro

Har Ek Naqsh Tamannaa Kaa Ho Gayaa Dhundhalaa
Har Ek Zakm Mere Dil Kaa Bhar Gayaa Yaaro

Zindagi Jab Bhi Teri Bazm Mein Laati Hai Hamein
Ye Zamin Chaand Se Behatar Nazar Aati Hai Hamein

Surkh Phulon Se Mahak Uthati Hain Dil Ki Raahen
Din Dhale Yun Teri Aavaaz Bulaati Hai Hamein

Had-E-Nigaah Tak Ye Zamin Hai Siyaah Phir
Nikali Hai Juganuon Ki Bhatakati Sipaah Phir

Honthon Pe Aa Rahaa Hai Koi Naam Baar Baar
Sannaaton Ki Tilism Ko Todegi Aah Phir

Zindagi Jaisi Tamannaa Thi Nahin Kuchh Kam Hai
Har Ghadi Hotaa Hai Ehasaas Kahin Kuchh Kam Hai

Ghar Ki Taamir Tasavvur Hi Mein Ho Sakati Hai
Apane Naqshe Ke Mutaabiq Ye Zamin Kuchh Kam Hai

Ye Kyaa Jagah Hai Dosto Ye Kaun Saa Dayaar Hai
Hadd-E-Nigaah Tak Jahaan Gubaar Hi Gubaar Hai

Ye Kis Mukaam Par Hayaat Mujh Ko Leke Aa Gai
Na Bas Khushi Pe Hai Jahaan Na Gam Pe Ikhtiyaar Hai

Sine Mein Jalan Aankhon Mein Tufaan Saa Kyun Hai
Is Shahar Mein Har Shakhs Pareshaan Saa Kyun Hai

Dil Hai To Dhadakane Kaa Bahaanaa Koi Dhundhe
Patthar Ki Tarah Behis-O-Bejaan Saa Kyun Hai

Kiyaa Iraadaa Baarahaa Tujhe Bhulaane Kaa
Milaa Na Uzr Hi Koi Magar Thikaane Kaa

Ye Kaisi Ajanabi Dastak Thi Kaisi Aahat Thi
Tere Sivaa Thaa Kise Haq Mujhe Jagaane Kaa

Kis-Kis Tarah Se Mujh Ko Na Rusvaa Kiyaa Gayaa
Gairon Kaa Naam Mere Lahu Se Likhaa Gayaa

Nikalaa Thaa Main Sadaa-E-Jaras Ki Talaash Men
Bhule Se Is Sukut Ke Seharaa Mein Aa Gayaa

Khun Mein Lat-Pat Ho Gaye Saaye Bhi Ashjaar Ke
Kitane Gehare Vaar The Khushbu Ki Talvaar Ke

Ik Lambi Chup Ke Sivaa Basti Mein Kyaa Rah Gayaa
Kab Se Ham Par Band Hain Daravaaze Izhaar Ke

Justaju Jis Ki Thi Us Ko To Na Paayaa Ham Ne
Is Bahaane Se Magar Dekh Li Duniyaa Ham Ne

Tujh Ko Rusavaa Na Kiyaa Khud Bhi Pashemaan Na Huye
Ishq Ki Rasm Ko Is Tarah Nibhaayaa Ham Ne
