Wo Kitna Meharban Tha K Hazaron Gham De Gaya;
Hum Kitne Khud Gharz Nikle Kuch Na De Sake Mohabbat K Siwa!
Heraan Hoon Kay Muddat-e-Qaleel Main Mohsin;
Wo Shakhas Meri Souch Say Zayada Badal Gaya!
Translation:
Qaleel = Very less
Mitt Jaye Gi Makhlooq To Insaaf Karo Ge;
Munsif Ho Agar To Hashar Uthaa Kyon Nahin Dete!
Kon Tha Woh Jo Tha Apne Shab-o-Roz Mein Gum;
Mar Gaye Jis Ki Mandderon Pe Kabooter Mere!
Translation:
Mandderon = Balcony
Jo Teri Muntazir Theen Woh Ankhen Hi Bujh Gayin;
Ab Kyun Sajaa Raha Hai Charaaghon Se Shaam Ko!
Husn Bhi Tha, Kashish Bhi Thi;
Andaaz Bhi Tha, Naqab Bhi Tha;
Heya Bhi Thi, Pyaar Bhi Tha;
Aggar Kuchh Na Tha To Bass Ikrar!
Har Ek Baat Pe Kehte Ho Tum Ke 'Tu Kya Hai';
Tumhee Kaho Ke Yeh Andaaz-e-Guftgoo Kya Hai!
Mere Haq Mein To Nahin Taaron Ki Basti Achhi;
Iss Bulandi Se Zameen Walon Ki Pasti Achi!
Lamha Bhar Apna Hawaaon Ko Bananay Waale;
Ab Na Aayein Ge Palat Kar Kabhi Jaane Waale!
Ye Na Pooch Ki Shikayatein Kitni Hain Tujhse Aye Zindagi;
Sirf Ye Bata Ki Tera Koi Aur Sitam Baaqi To Nahi Hai.
