harf-e-dil na-rasa hai tere shahr mein

hai bhare daraKHton ke bawajud ban tanha

mausam ke badalne ka kuchh andaza bhi hota

ek guzarish hai bas itna kijiye

kis samt ja raha hai zamana kaha na jae

ye khel bhul-bhulayyan mein humne khela bhi

dard-e-alam bhi kahin dard-e-mohabbat hi na ho

saneha ye bhi ek roz kar jaunga

apne khoe hue lamhat ko paya tha kabhi

nigah o dil ke pas ho wo mera aashna rahe

phir aapne dekha hai mohabbat ki nazar se

wahi dasht-e-bala hai aur main hun

zindagi kawish-e-baatil hai mera sath na chhoD

maza lams ka be-zabani mein tha

nae makan mein aqide ki koi ja hi nahin
