aasman aasman tha mera kab hua main zamin be-sada ye na malum tha
is mohabbat ne tode hain hum par sitam tu bhi saudai tha ye na malum tha

tute ek tar se soz aur saz se kitni mushkil se joda tha hum ne jise
tinka tinka hai bikhra wahi aashiyan aaegi yun bala ye na malum tha

teri fitrat mein zalim hai saudagari teri mahfil mein ulfat bhi bikti rahi
jhute wadon se mere hasin khwab ka tu ne sauda kiya ye na malum tha

pyar tujh ko kiya main ne sachchai se phir bhi ai chaaragar kyon kiya ye sitam
mujh se munh mod kar jaega chhod kar tu nahin hai mera ye na malum tha

jab bhi hum haar kar tut kar ro pade apni qismat pe aur apne haalat par
ek naya azm le kar mera hausla dega mujh ko sada ye na malum tha

teri duniya mein yarab ye kaisa chalan kyon khilauna samajhte hain dil ko sabhi
hogi majruh meri jawan-arzu dard mil jaega ye na malum tha

mar chuka tha jahan mein tu mere liye phir bhi mere khayalon mein zinda raha
main bhi murda si duniya mein ji lungi yun lash ban ke sada ye na malum tha

mera dil jaane kyon bewafa dilruba umr bhar khwab tere hi bunta raha
tu kisi aur ke khwabon ka ban chuka ek tabir tha ye na malum tha

meri sanson ne mujh se baghawat hi ki to meri sans tha tu meri ruh bhi
tu ibaadat meri tu hi dhadkan meri tu hi mera khuda ye na malum tha

dil dhadakta hai mera tere nam par meri sansen bhi chalti hain ehsas par
tu hi manzil meri to meri justuju tu mera nakhuda ye na malum tha

be-sahaara hun main hun nasibon jali kitni majbur duniya mein hun na-tawan
tu mera to nahin phir bhi dil mein to hai tu mera aasra ye na malum tha

ashk bahte rahe phir bhi hansti rahi lab pe 'shahnaz' uf tak na main la saki
meri sachchaiyan hi meri hain khata dil tha baghi mera ye na malum tha

chot lagti rahi hans ke sahti rahi lab pe 'shahnaz' uf tak na main la saki
meri barbaadiyon ka sabab ishq hai zindagi bewafa ye na malum tha
