puchhte hain wo ishq ka matlab
ab nikal jaega mera matlab

us pe zahir hua mera matlab
kash pura kare khuda matlab

kah diya un se barmala matlab
ab khuda chahe to hua matlab

baat puri abhi nahin nikli
munh se tum le ude mera matlab

kahte hain arz-e-wasl par wo kaho
dusri baat dusra matlab

hai ye matlab na kuchh zaban se kahun
main samajhta hun aap ka matlab

jo tamanna hai tum pe zahir hai
har ghadi puchhne se kya matlab

dil mein jo kuchh tha un se kah na saka
lab pe aa aa ke rah gaya matlab

muddaa hai wahi jo pahle tha
aur main kya kahun naya matlab

ru-ba-ru un ke baat kar na saka
khat mein aakhir ko likh diya matlab

baat kya hai wo mujh se puchhte hain
waqia qissa majra matlab

wasta ghair ka nahin achchha
khub banta hai barmala matlab

tum jo mil jao kaam ban jae
aur us ke siwa hi kya matlab

aaj khush khush bashir phirte hain
nikla arman muddaa matlab
