kabhi kabhi to jazb e ishq mat kha ke reh gaya
ke tujh se mil ke bhi tera khyal aa ke reh gaya
judaion ke marhaley bhi husn se tahi na thay
kabhi kabhi to shoq aaene dikha ke reh gaya
kisey khabar ke ishq per qayamaten guzar gaen
zamana us nigah ka freb kha ke reh gaya
ye kia maqam e shoq he na aas he na yas he
ye kia hua ke lab pe tera nam aa ke reh gaya
koi bhi ham safar na tha shareek e manzil junoon
boht hua to raftgan ka dhyan aa ke reh gaya
charagh e sham e aarzu bhi jhilmila ke reh gae
tera khayal raste sujha sujha ke reh gaya
chamak chamak ke reh gaen najoom o gul ki manzilen
main dard ki kahanian suna suna ke reh gaya
teray wisal ki umeed ashk ban ke beh gai
khushi ka chand sham he se jhilmila ke reh gaya
wohi udas roz o shab, wohi fasun, wohi hawa
teray wisal ka zamana yad aa ke reh gaya
