dil dhaDakne ka sabab yaad aaya

apni dhun mein rahta hun

dil mein ek lahr si uThi hai abhi

niyyat-e-shauq bhar na jae kahin

tere aane ka dhoka sa raha hai

dayar-e-dil ki raat mein charagh sa jala gaya

gae dinon ka suragh le kar kidhar se aaya kidhar gaya wo

nae kapDe badal kar jaun kahan aur baal banaun kis ke liye

dil mein aur to kya rakkha hai

aaj to be-sabab udas hai ji

kuchh yaadgar-e-shahr-e-sitamgar hi le chalen

hoti hai tere nam se wahshat kabhi kabhi

wo sahilon pe gane wale kya hue

gali gali meri yaad bichhi hai pyare rasta dekh ke chal

gham hai ya KHushi hai tu

aaraish-e-KHayal bhi ho dil-kusha bhi ho

wo dil-nawaz hai lekin nazar-shanas nahin

phir sawan rut ki pawan chali tum yaad aae

musalsal bekali dil ko rahi hai

maine jab likhna sikha tha

shahr sunsan hai kidhar jaen

thoDi der ko ji bahla tha

kaun us rah se guzarta hai

kisi kali ne bhi dekha na aankh bhar ke mujhe

girafta-dil hain bahut aaj tere diwane

main hun raat ka ek baja hai

is se pahle ki bichhaD jaen hum

dekh mohabbat ka dastur

dukh ki lahar ne chheDa hoga

o mere masruf KHuda

aaj tujhe kyun chup si lagi hai

kya zamana tha ki hum rose mila karte the

gali gali aabaad thi jin se kahan gae wo log

din Dhala raat phir aa gai so raho so raho

nasir kya kahta phirta hai kuchh na suno to behtar hai

sar mein jab ishq ka sauda na raha

dafatan dil mein kisi yaad ne li angDai

kab talak muddaa kahe koi

tu jab mere ghar aaya tha

yaad aata hai roz o shab koi

awwalin chand ne kya baat sujhai mujhko

pichhle pahar ka sannaTa tha

jab raat gae teri yaad aai sau tarah se ji ko bahlaya

dard kam hone laga aao ki kuchh raat kaTe

safar-e-manzil-e-shab yaad nahin

dhup nikli din suhane ho gae

tu hai ya tera saya hai

kal jinhen zindagi thi ras bahut

in sahme hue shahron ki faza kuchh kahti hai

tere KHayal se lo de uThi hai tanhai
