aapka jab se aana hua
khushnuma aashiyana hua

un ki baaten ghazal ho gain
apna dil shairana hua

raat ki kya kahen raat bhar
un ka khwabon mein aana hua

ishq kije to mat sochiye
kis gali aana jaana hua

dil ka panchhi wahin jaega
jis jagah aab-o-dana hua

jis ke bin ek pal bojh tha
us ko dekhe zamana hua

qad se saya bada ho gaya
sham ka jiyun jiyun aana hua

chain ek pal nahin hai 'ratan'
jab se dil ka lagana hua
