jo bhi hai hasb-e-haal khinchenge
us ka naqsha kamal khinchenge

chutki kategi wo shararat se
aur hum us ke baal khinchenge

tujh ko mujh se milane wale log
donon jaanib se mal khinchenge

yar lamhon mein samne hoga
is tarah mah-o-sal khinchenge

bharne wala hai ye mohabbat se
waqt par apna jal khinchenge

koi cigarette maza na dega to phir
capstan pal mall khinchenge

dene honge jawab aakhir-kar
tujh ko mere sawal khinchenge

zakhm ghurbat ke sab raqam kar ke
karb-e-qaht-ur-rijal khinchenge

aakhir aana padega mere liye
tujh ko mere khayal khinchenge

gar ye mumkin hua to apni taraf
ek do khush-khisal khinchenge

itne bigde hain dar nahin baqi
kya bade apne gal khinchenge

meri ghurbat milegi wirse mein
is ko mere ayal khinchenge

tod den dor hijr ki 'abid'
kab talak ye wabaal khinchenge
