meri tanhaiyon mein kyun aate

dekhu soorat jab apni aaine-mein main,
mujh ko bas tum hi tum, nazar aate,

kyun nigahon se, tera haseen chehra,
ek pal ke liye bhi juda naa ho pata,

tujh ko maloom hai kya yeh bhi sanam,
aaye jo khawab mujh ko raaton mein,
us mein tum hi tum bas nazar aate,

main jab bhi tannha beithu kabhi akele mein,
teri yaadon ka, mela wahan bhi aa jata,
main kya-kya soch kar o mere sanam,
kabhi hansta to kabhi rota hoon,

kyun khayalon mein aa ke tum aise,
dil ke taaron ko, cherd kar jaate,
dekh tannha akela tum mujh ko,
meri tanhaiyon mein kyun aate.
