ab is se badh ke mujhe aur kya suhulat ho
main tujh ko yaad karun sans ki bhi fursat ho

faza mein sirf tere qahqahe rahen baqi
aur is zamin pe teri talab salamat ho

tumhaare nam pe jhagda ho aur is ke baad
ho aisi jang ki jis mein meri halakat ho

tere visal ke lamhe bikhar gae mujh se
khuda kare ki tere hijr ki hifazat ho

main chahta hun koi rasta sujhai de
main chahta hun mujhe dusri mohabbat ho

lage hue hain samaat ki chaplusi mein
koi to ho ki jise bolne ki hajat ho

main roz karta hun 'sahir' nai adakari
bhula na dun jo use bhulne ki niyyat ho
