Koi Kyon Kisi Ka Lunbhaye Dil, Koi Kya Kisi Se Lagaye Dil;
Wo Jo Bechte The Dawa-e-Dil, Wo Dukan Apni Badha Gaye!
Pucha Na Zindagi Mein Kisi Ne Bhi Dil Ka Haal;
Ab Shehar Bhar Mein Zikar Meri Khudkushi Ka Hai!
Humne Pyaar Nahi Ishq Nahi Ibaadat Ki Hai,
Rasmon Se Riwazon Se Bagawat Ki Hai;
Manga Tha Hum Ne Jise Apni Duaaon Mein,
Usi Ne Mujh Se Juda Hone Ki Chahat Ki Hai!
Koi Shai Ek Si Nahi Rehti;
Umar Dhalti Hai Gham Badalte Hain!
Tujhe Kaun Jaanta Tha Meri Dosti Se Pehle;
Tera Husn Kuch Nahi Tha Meri Shayari Se Pehle!
Bahane Aur Bhi Hote Jo Zindagi Ke Liye;
Hum Ek Baar Teri Aarzoo Bhi Kho Dete!
Farishton Se Bhi Achchha Main Bura Hone Se Pehle Tha;
Wo Mujh Se Intihai Khush Khafa Hone Se Pehle Tha!
Gair Ke Saath Kabhi Zikar Hamara Na Karein,
Hum Ko Badnaam Karen Ishq Ko Ruswa Na Karein;
Dil Ye Kehta Hai Muqaddar Hai Pareshan Rehna,
Akal Kehti Hai Ki Hum Zulf Ka Sauda Na Karein!
Hawa Ke Dosh Pe Rakhe Hue Chiragh Hain Hum;
Jo Bujh Gaye Toh Hawa Se Shikayatein Kaisi!
Tum Se Zazbaat The Jab Tum Hi Nahi,
Phir Zamane Se Shikayat Na Rahi!
