aankhon mein jo baat ho gai hai
ek sharh-e-hayat ho gai hai

jab dil ki wafat ho gai hai
har chiz ki raat ho gai hai

gham se chhut kar ye gham hai mujh ko
kyun gham se najat ho gai hai

muddat se khabar mili na dil ki
shayad koi baat ho gai hai

jis shai pe nazar padi hai teri
taswir-e-hayat ho gai hai

ab ho mujhe dekhiye kahan subh
un zulfon mein raat ho gai hai

dil mein tujh se thi jo shikayat
ab gham ke nikat ho gai hai

iqrar-e-gunah-e-ishq sun lo
mujh se ek baat ho gai hai

jo chiz bhi mujh ko hath aai
teri saughat ho gai hai

kya jaaniye maut pahle kya thi
ab meri hayat ho gai hai

ghatte ghatte teri inayat
meri auqat ho gai hai

us chashm-e-siyah ki yaad yaksar
sham-e-zulmat ho gai hai

is daur mein zindagi bashar ki
bimar ki raat ho gai hai

jiti hui bazi-e-mohabbat
khela hun to mat ho gai hai

mitne lagin zindagi ki qadren
jab gham se najat ho gai hai

wo chahen to waqt bhi badal jae
jab aae hain raat ho gai hai

duniya hai kitni be-thikana
aashiq ki baraat ho gai hai

pahle wo nigah ek kiran thi
ab barq-sifat ho gai hai

jis chiz ko chhu diya hai tu ne
ek barg-e-nabaat ho gai hai

ikka-dukka sada-e-zanjir
zindan mein raat ho gai hai

ek ek sifat 'firaq' us ki
dekha hai to zat ho gai hai
