dard-o-gham ki hikayaten mat puchh
dil pe guzri qayamaten mat puchh

sari koshish hai be-husul teri
zakhm-e-dil ki jarahaten mat puchh

ek nazar mein na jaane kya dekha
hum se aankhon ki hairaten mat puchh

zarre zarre mein hai teri surat
hum se apni shabahaten mat puchh

hum ne sadiyan guzar din is mein
ek pal ki rifaqaten mat puchh

yaad rakhna to hai kamal tera
bhul jaane ki aadaten mat puchh

hai mohabbat to e'tibar bhi kar
har amal ki wazahaten mat puchh
