dil na-umeed to nahin naakaam hi to hai lambi hai gham ki shaam magar shaam hi to hai

main agar apni jawaani ke suna doon qisse ye jo launde hain mere paanv dabane lag jaa.e

mas'ala ye nahin ki ishq hua hai ham ko mas'ala ye hai ki izhaar kiya jaana hai

main chahta hooñ mohabbat meraa vo haal kare ki KHvaab men bhi dobara kabhi majaal na ho

gulaab KHvaab davaa zahar jaam kya kya hai main aa gaya hooñ bataa intizaam kya kya hai

maazi bhi hai udaas mere haal kii tarah ye saal bhi guzar gaya har saal kii tarah

maine aa'saab ko patthar ka banaa rakkha hai ek dil hai ki jo banta nahin patthar jaisa ham faqeeron ko kabhi raas na aaya varna hamne paaya tha muqaddar to sikandar jaisa

zindagi bhar mujhe is baat kii hasrat hi rahi din guzaarun to koii raat suhaani aa.e

tu nahin to tira khayal sahi koii to ham-khayaal hai meraa

bichhde hue to ek zamaana hua magar vo shaKHs meri aankh se ojhal nahin hua
