masti-e-baada-e-gulfam se wabasta rahi
haalat meri rah mein hail to nahin the
unki yaadon ki hasin parchhaiyan rah jaengi
be-tarah in mein ulajh jaega nadani na kar
ye aaina tha magar gham ki rahguzar mein tha
gham-e-mazi gham-e-hazir gham-e-farda ke siwa
kaun sa wo zaKHm-e-dil tha jo tar-o-taza na tha
zindagi kuchh soz hai kuchh saz hai
hazar hadsat-e-gham rawan-dawan liye hue
hangama-ha-e-baada-o-paimana dekh kar
kashti-e-dil nazr-e-tufan ho gai
nur-afshan hai wo zulmat mein ujalon ki tarah
nahin tha koi bhi phir bhi thin aahaTen kya kya
kise KHabar thi ki zehn-o-dil mein ajib sa intishaar hoga
main hun aise bikhra sa
