dard iksir ke siwa kya hai
zakhm-e-dil ke bina maza kya hai

meri sanson mein bas gai hai mahak
hae is kuche ki hawa kya hai

wasl ke chaar din to bit gae
sirf yaaden hain ab bacha kya hai

dil diya jis ko wo hua ghafil
jurm-e-izhaar ki saza kya hai

kho gaya wo jahan ke mele mein
meri duniya mein ab raha kya hai

baat hoti thi kal nigahon se
un ishaaron ka ab hua kya hai

jaante jab the ishq ka anjam
'mona' qismat se phir gila kya hai
