kuchh to mohabbaton ki wafaen nibhaun main
shadab barishon ki hawaen nibhaun main

itne qarib aao badan bhi sunai de
guzre dinon ki narm sadaen nibhaun main

dil bhi to chahta hai ki sabza kahin khile
banjar zamin pe kali ghataen nibhaun main

dariya ki lahr pyase kinaron ko saunp dun
masum aarzu ki khataen nibhaun main

shadab ho bhi sakte hain chehre nasib ke
phailaun hath aur duaen nibhaun main

rah jae kuchh to jalte badan par use rakhun
har lamha khushbuon ki qabaen nibhaun main

manzur ho tumhein to mohabbat ke nam par
masum khwahishon ki sazaen nibhaun main

ta-umr zindagi ko nibhana muhaal hai
kuchh roz sadgi ki adaen nibhaun main

kholun na raushni ke dariche nigah mein
'usha' dilon ki tera fazaen nibhaun main
