hum bahut dur nikal aae hain chalte chalte

yun sar-e-rah mulaqat hui hai aksar

aadmi jaan ke khata hai mohabbat mein fareb

pursish-e-haal ki fursat tumhein mumkin hai na ho

ai ahl-e-wafa dad-e-jafa kyun nahin dete

barha un se na milne ki qasam khata hun main

safar pe nikle hain hum pure ehtimam ke sath

raushni mujhse gurezan hai to shikwa bhi nahin

jab ghar ki aag bujhi to kuchh saman bacha tha jalne se

zamana dekha hai humne hamari qadr karo

hath phailaun main isa-nafason ke aage

kuchh aise zaKHm bhi dar-parda humne khae hain

be-niyazana guzar jae guzarne wala

mere jurm-e-wafa ka faisla kuchh is tarah hoga

jhuk kar salam karne mein kya harj hai magar
