kuchh ajab shaan se logon men rahaa karate the

ham Khafaa rah ke bhii aapas men milaa karate the

itanii tahaziib rah-o-rasm to baaqii thii ki vo

laakh ranjish sahii vaadaa to vafaa karate the

us ne puuchhaa thaa kai baar magar kyaa kahiye

ham mizaajan hii pareshaan rahaa karate the

Khatm thaa ham pe mohabbat kaa tamaashaa goyaa

ruuh aur jism ko har roz judaa karate the

zindagii ham se tere naaz uThaaye na gaye

saaNs lene kii faqat rasm adaa karate the

ham baras paDate the ‘Shaz’ apanii hii tanhaai par

abr kii tarah kisii dar se uThaa karate the
