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

mohabbat ka diya aise bujha tha

dekha palaT ke jab bhi to phaila ghubar tha

zara si raat Dhal jae to shayad nind aa jae

sare manzar dilkash the har baat suhani lagti thi

KHud hi diya jalati hun

ek muddat se yahan Thahra hua pani hai

koi jab mil ke muskuraya tha

shikayat hum nahin karte riayat wo nahin karte

dard ka samundar hai sirf par hone tak

zindagi chupke se ek baat kaha karti hai

muddaton humse mulaqat nahin karte hain

kabhi tum bhigne aana meri aankhon ke mausam mein

jaise KHushiyon mein gham nahin hote

hamein to sath chalne ka hunar ab tak nahin aaya
