ab kaun baat rah gai ye baat bhi gai
yani kabhi kabhi ki mulaqat bhi gai

kahte hain wo ki jazba-e-dil ab fareb hai
jab dil gaya to dil ki karamat bhi gai

jo kuchh kiya wo tu ne kiya iztirab-e-shauq
sau aafaten bhi aain meri baat bhi gai

dastar aap ki jo hui rehn-e-mai-kada
tauba hamari qibla-e-hajat bhi gai

wade ki kaun raat qayamat ka din nahin
aasar-e-subh kahte hain ye raat bhi gai

mana ki din sidhaare 'mubarak' shabab ke
rangin tabiaton se mulaqat bhi gai
