yun to milne ko ek zamana mila
na mila han wo bewafa na mila

aashnai mein kuchh maza na mila
aashna dard-ashna na mila

jab mile wo khiche tane hi mile
lutf milne ka ek zara na mila

ham-nawa sab khizan ke aate hi
aise patta hue pata na mila

kho ke dil ko hum is qadar khush hain
jaise qarun ka khazana mila

shad kya hun husul-e-jannat par
ki rupae mein se ek aana mila

aashiqi kya hai sach jo puchho to
hum ko marne ka ek bahana mila

zindagani thi ya pareshani
sab kiya aur kuchh maza na mila

roiye us ki bad-nasibi par
dhundhne par jise khuda na mila

mujh se milne mein kya burai hai
aap ke dil ka muddaa na mila

mil gaya dil jo hum se milna tha
aankh ab hum se to mila na mila

khich ke milna bhi koi milna hai
ek hai wo jo yun mila na mila

phir samai safi' se milne ki
kyun tumhein koi dusra na mila

qadr karta hun apni aap safi'
wah mujh ko bhi kya zamana mila
