wahi phir mujhe yaad aane lage hain

pi pi ke jagmagae zamane guzar gae

kabhi jo maine masarrat ka ehtimam kiya

ek pal mein ek sadi ka maza humse puchhiye

mujhko shikast-e-dil ka maza yaad aa gaya

wo hamein jis qadar aazmate rahe

kya hua husn hai ham-safar ya nahin

na haara hai ishq aur na duniya thaki hai

mujhko ye jaan-o-dil qubul naghme ko naghma hi samajh

hansne wale ab ek kaam karen

hijr ki shab hai aur ujala hai

aisa nahin ki un se mohabbat nahin rahi
