ye man-bhawan sa apna-pan jaane kahan se late ho

ye man-bhāvan sā apnā-pan jaane kahāñ se laate ho

jab aate ho dil kā TukḌā ek churā le jaate ho

chup-chup rah ke kuchh nahīñ kah ke kyā se kyā kah jaate ho

dabe dabe bujhte ḳhvāboñ ko aur havā de jaate ho

chhoTī chhoTī mīThī bāteñ bhuul chuke the ham jin ko

halke halke yaad dilā ke is dil ko sahlāte ho

jaate vaqt yahī kahte ho aglī baar na jāoge

kaise kaise nā-mumkin se va.ade tum kar jaate ho

aate hī jaane kī jaldī der na ho ghabrāte ho

der huī to kabhī kabhī is dil meñ bhī rah jaate ho

ye man-bhawan sa apna-pan jaane kahan se late ho

jab aate ho dil ka TukDa ek chura le jate ho

chup-chup rah ke kuchh nahin kah ke kya se kya kah jate ho

dabe dabe bujhte KHwabon ko aur hawa de jate ho

chhoTi chhoTi miThi baaten bhul chuke the hum jin ko

halke halke yaad dila ke is dil ko sahlate ho

jate waqt yahi kahte ho agli bar na jaoge

kaise kaise na-mumkin se wade tum kar jate ho

aate hi jaane ki jaldi der na ho ghabraate ho

der hui to kabhi kabhi is dil mein bhi rah jate ho
