Jab Teri Yaadon Ko Aas-Paas Pata Hun,
Khud Ko Bahut Zyada Udaas Pata Hun;
Tujhe Toh Mil Gayi Khushiyan Zamane Bhar Ki,
Main Ab Bhi Dil Mein Wahi Pyaas Pata Hun!
Yun Toh Aapko Roz Yaad Kiya Karte Hain,
Mann Hi Mann Mein Dekh Liya Karte Hain,
Kya Hua Agar Paas Nahi Hum Toh,
Dil Hi Dil Mein Mulaqaat Kar Liya Karte Hain!
Lazzat-e-Hijr Ae Jaan-e-Jaan Aur Bhi Badhti Gayi;
Teri Yaad Ki Baad-e-Saba Jab Dil Se Guzarti Gayi!
Kahin Toot Na Jayein Marasim Teri Yaadon Se Bhi;
Kabhi-Kabhi Tanhai Se Bahut Darta Bhi Hun Main!
Abhi Mashroof Hun Kaafi Kabhi Fursat Mein Sochunga;
Ki Tujhko Yaad Rakhne Mein Main Kya-Kya Bhool Jata Hun!
Sookhi Hai Nadi, Bheege Hain Kinare;
Hum Toh Zinda Hain Teri Yaadon Ke Sahare!
Chup Hain Woh Kis Wajah Se Humein Maloom Nahi Magar;
Dil Doob Saa Jaata Hai Jab Woh Yaad Nahi Karte!
Chaman Ke Baharon Mein Tha Aashiyana,
Na Jane Kahan Kho Geya Woh Zamaana,
Tumhein Bhulane Ki Main Koshish Toh Karunga,
Dua Karo Ki Tum Kabhi Mujhe Yaad Na Aana!
Itne Waqt Baad Mile Ho Kin Socho Mein Ghum Ho;
Din Ke Ujaale Ne Mujh Se Pucha Har Waqt Kiski Yaad Mein Khoye Ho!
Aksar Hum Apni Raat Yun Barbaad Karte Hain,
Baith Ke Kisi Kone Mein Unko Yaad Karte Hain;
Unke Vapis Aane Ki Ummeed Toh Chhod Di Kab Ki,
Phir Bhi Na Jane Kyon Hum Apna Waqt Barbaad Karte Hain!
