jab tum hum se sare-baazar mil kar bicharde the

mere dua ke lafz tut-tut kar bicharde the, 
jab tum hum se sare-baazar mil kar bicharde the. 

judaai ke woh manzar aaj bhi hain nigahon mein, 
jab tum mere bann kar duniya se nikle the. 

tujhe apni kismat samjh kar dil se lagaya tha humne, 
sabab-a-bewafai kitne gunah faristo ne likhe the. 

kitna khush tha apna dil unke panahoo mein, 
jana dard tab jab phool ke patton ki tarha hum bicharde the. 

kis kadar kaid the uski nigahon mera mera dil, 
jaise wadiyon se duaae le kar nikle the, 

phoolon ki bistar mein mili hain ghum-e-tanahai, 
ajab shakas tha muskaraya tab jab kanton se mile the.
