khel tha apni ana ka ishq use samjha kiya
sham-e-be-mehar mein ek yaad ka jugnu chamka
sard hawa hai nauhagar raat bahut guzar gai
kisi ko kab wo apne dil ka kuchh ahwal deta hai
gae dinon ka hawala tha kaam kya deta
dam-ba-dam taghayyur ke rang hain zamane mein
dekhte jate hain namnak hue jate hain
wo din jo bit gaya phir kisi ne paya nahin
naqd-e-jaan ki mere saughat abhi baqi hai
jinhen mahfilon se gharaz na thi wo jo qaid apne gharon mein the
malbus-e-ghubar yaad rakhna
puchhe jo nishan koi anjaan nikalte hain
