apne jine ko kya puchho subh bhi goya raat rahi
tum bhi ruthe jag bhi rutha ye bhi waqt ki baat rahi

pyar ke khel mein dil ke malik hum to sab kuchh kho baithe
aksar tum se shart lagi hai aksar apni mat rahi

lakh diye duniya ne charke lakh lage dil par pahre
husn ne lakhon chaalen badlin lekin ishq ki ghat rahi

tum kya samjhe tum se chhut kar hath bhala hum kyun malte
chashm-o-dil ke shaghl ko aksar ashkon ki barsat rahi

tum se do do baat ki khatir hum aage badh aae the
pichhe pichhe sath hamare talkhi-e-lamhat rahi

thandi thandi aah ki khushbu narm o garm ashkon ke haar
sach puchho to apni sari zist ki ye saughat rahi

kaise subh ko sham karunga kaise katenge umr ke din
soch raha hun ab jo yahi be-chaargi-e-haalat rahi
