aaj hum ek baat aisi kah gae
jis se wo taswir ban kar rah gae

wae nakaami ki sab arman-e-dil
rafta rafta ashk ban kar bah gae

aabru-e-ishq rakhna thi hamein
is liye zulm-o-sitam sab sah gae

hum bhi kuchh had se siwa karte magar
kya karen majbur ho kar rah gae

mere andaz-e-junun par bhi 'ziya'
kuchh na bole muskura kar rah gae
