muddat hui us jaan-e-haya ne humse ye iqrar kiya
dida o dil mein koi husn bikharta hi raha
tu is qadar mujhe apne qarib lagta hai
har ek ruh mein ek gham chhupa lage hai mujhe
hausla kho na diya teri nahin se humne
jism ki har baat hai aawargi ye mat kaho
chaunk chaunk uThti hai mahlon ki faza raat gae
zamin hogi kisi qatil ka daman hum na kahte the
zulfen sina naf kamar
tamam umr azabon ka silsila to raha
mujhe malum hai main sari duniya ki amanat hun
sau chand bhi chamkenge to kya baat banegi
wo log hi har daur mein mahbub rahe hain
aahaT si koi aae to lagta hai ki tum ho
mai-kashi ab meri aadat ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin
