Ye Dil Ye Pagal Dil Mera Kyun Bujh Geya Aawargi,
Is Dasht Mein Ik Shehar Tha, Wo Kiya Hua Aawargi;
Kal Shab Mujhe Be-Shakal Ki Aawaz Ne Chonka Diya,
Maine Kaha Tu Kaun Hai Usne Kaha Aawargi!
Na Pucha Mere Sabar Ki Inteha Kahan Tak Hai, Kar Le Tu Sitam, Teri Hasrat Jahan Tak Hai; Wafa Ki Umeed, Jinhe Hogi Unhe Hogi, Humein To Dekhna Hai Tu Bewafa Kahan Tak Hai!
Hum Ko Unse Hai Wafa Ki Umeed; Jo Nahi Jaante Wafa Kya Hai!
Mil Mujh Se Ai Pari Tujhe Quran Ki Kasam,
Deta Hun Tujh Ko Takht-e-Sulaiman Ki Kasam;
Karr-o-Bayon Ki Tujh Ko Kasam Aur Arsh Ki,
Jibril Ki Kasam Tujhe Rizwan Ki Kasam!
*Karr-o-Bayon: Creations other than human beings
Ek Khwahish Hai Bas Zamane Ki,
Teri Aankhon Mein Doob Jaane Ki;
Saath Jab Tum Nibha Nahi Paate,
Kya Zaroorat Thi Dil Lagane Ki!
Zindagi Kavish-e-Batil Hai Mera Saath Na Chhod,
Tu Hi Ik Umar Ka Hasil Hai Mera Saath Na Chhod;
Log Milte Hain Sar-e-Raah Guzar Jaate Hain,
Tu Hi Ik Hum-Safar-e-Dil Hai Mera Saath Na Chhod!
Tujhi Ko Jo Yaan Jalwa-Farma Na Dekha,
Barabar Hai Duniya Ko Dekha Na Dekha;
Mera Ghuncha-e-Dil Hai Wo Dil Girafta,
Ki Jis Ko Kisu Ne Kabhu Va Na Dekha!
* Ghuncha-e-Dil: Bud Of Heart
* Girafta: Sad
Samandar Mein Utarta Hun To Aankhen Bheeg Jati Hain,
Teri Aankhon Ko Padhta Hun To Aankhen Bheeg Jati Hain;
Tumhara Naam Likhne Ki Izazat Chin Gayi Jab Se,
Koi Bhi Lafz Likhta Hun To Aankhen Bheeg Jati Hain!
Baat Karni Mujhe Mushkil Kabhi Aisi To Na Thi,
Jaisi Ab Hai Teri Mehfil Kabhi Aisi To Na Thi;
Le Gaya Chheen Ke Kaun Aaj Tera Sabr-o-Qarar,
Be-Qarari Tujhe Ai Dil Kabhi Aisi To Na Thi!
Jag Mein Aa Kar Idhar Udhar Dekha,
Tu Hi Aaya Nazar Jidhar Dekha;
Jaan Se Ho Gaye Badan Khali,
Jis Taraf Tu Ne Aankh Bhar Dekha!
