mohabbat ka diya aise bujha tha

zamana jhuk gaya hota agar lahja badal lete

mere ham-raqs sae ko bil-aKHir yunhi Dhalna tha

dard ka samundar hai sirf par hone tak

kahen hum kya kisi se dil ki virani nahin jati

zindagi chupke se ek baat kaha karti hai

hamein to sath chalne ka hunar ab tak nahin aaya

sare manzar dilkash the har baat suhani lagti thi

wo mere bare mein aise bhi sochta kab tha

kahin yaqin se na ho jaen hum guman ki tarah

dekha palaT ke jab bhi to phaila ghubar tha

ek muddat se yahan Thahra hua pani hai

muddaton humse mulaqat nahin karte hain

shikayat hum nahin karte riayat wo nahin karte

rakh uDti hui baalon mein nazar aati hai
