thi kabhi ab magar wo chah nahin
thī kabhī ab magar vo chaah nahīñ
un se pahlī sī rasm-o-rāh nahīñ
apnī fariyād bhī hai jurm kī baat
un kī bedād bhī gunāh nahīñ
kuchh na kuchh husn bhī to hai mujrim
sab kā sab aañkh kā gunāh nahīñ
jaane kis maslahat ke pesh-e-nazar
zulm ab un ke be-panāh nahīñ
dekh 'ārif' ye auj-e-ishq bhī dekh
ik tarāna hai lab pe aah nahīñ
thi kabhi ab magar wo chah nahin
un se pahli si rasm-o-rah nahin
apni fariyaad bhi hai jurm ki baat
un ki bedad bhi gunah nahin
kuchh na kuchh husn bhi to hai mujrim
sab ka sab aankh ka gunah nahin
jaane kis maslahat ke pesh-e-nazar
zulm ab un ke be-panah nahin
dekh 'arif' ye auj-e-ishq bhi dekh
ek tarana hai lab pe aah nahin
