Palkon pe aanso’on ko sajaya na jaa saka

us ko bhi Dil ka haal bataya na jaa saka

zakhmon se choor choor tha yeh Dil mera

ek zakham bhi us ko dikhaya na jaa saka

jab teri yaad aayi to koshish ke ba wajood

aankhon main aanso’on ko chupaya na jaa saka

kuch log zindagi main aise bhi aaye hain

jin ko kisi bhi lamhe bhulaya na jaa saka

bas is khayaal se kahin us ko dukh na ho

hum se to haal-e-ghum bhi sunaya na jaa saka

woh muskuraha tha mere ru-ba-ru magar

chehre ka rang us se chupaya na jaa saka

tanhaiyon ki aag main hum jal gaye

magar faasla ana ka mitaya na jaa saka
