Usne Mujhse Na Jane Kyon Yeh Doori Kar Li,
Bichhad Ke Usne Mohabbat Hi Adhoori Kar Di;
Mere Muqaddar Mein Dard Aaya Toh Kya Hua,
Khudaa Ne Uski Khwahish Toh Poori Kar Di!
Nigaahon Se Qatal Karde, Na Ho Taqleef Dono Ko;
Tujhe Khanjar Uthhane Ki, Mujhe Gardan Jhukane Ki!
Mujhko Toh Dard-e-Dil Ka Mazaa Yaad Aa Geya,
Tum Kyon Hue Udaas Tumhein Kya Yaad Aa Gaya;
Kehne Ko Zindagi Thi Bahut Mukhtsar Magar,
Kuch Yun Hui Basar Ki Khudaa Yaad Aa Geya!
Kahin Saagar Labalab Hain, Kahin Khaali Pyaale Hain;
Yeh Kaisa Daur Hai Saqi, Yeh Kya Taqseem Hai Saqi!
Mohabbat Aisi Thi Ki Unko Batayi Na Gayi,
Chot Dil Par Thi Iss Liye Dikhayi Na Gayi;
Chahte Nahi The Unse Door Hona Magar,
Doori Itni Thi Ki Mitaayi Na Gayi!
Kuch Kar Ab Mera Bhi Ilaaz Ai Hakeem-e-Mohabbat;
Har Raat Woh Yaad Aata Hai Aur Mujhse Soya Nahi Jata!
Jhoothi Hansi Se Zakhm Aur Badhta Geya;
Iss Se Behtar Tha Khul Kar Ro Liye Hote!
Khushboo Ki Tarah Aaya Woh Tez Hawaaon Mein,
Maanga Tha Jise Humne Din Raat Duaaon Mein;
Tum Chhat Pe Nahi Aaye Main Ghar Se Nahi Nikla,
Yeh Chaand Bahut Bhatka Saawan Ki Ghataaon Mein!
Jaane Kyon Doob Jata Hun Har Bar Inhein Dekh Kar;
Ek Dariya Hai Ya Poora Samandar Hai Teri Aankhein!
Rakhe Hain Dil Mein Humne Bade Ehatraam Se;
Jo Gham Diye Hain Tumne Mohabbat Ke Naam Se!
