ek ranj-e-dil ke jis se siwa chahta nahin
kuchh bhi ho phir main us ki jagah chahta nahin

us ko bhi main talab hun magar mujh se kuchh juda
koi bhi mujh ko meri tarah chahta nahin

ukta chuka hun ruh ki la-faniyat se par
wo jism hun ke rah-e-fana chahta nahin

koi bhi tere zakhm si tasir kaise de
lekin main us ka aur maza chahta nahin

is bar tu mile to tujhe chumna bhi hai
main zindagi mein aur gila chahta nahin

har la-dawa maraz ko duaon se hai umid
tera koi mariz dawa chahta nahin

mana ki ahd-e-wasl ka bhi pas hai magar
aakhir wo kaise ho jo khuda chahta nahin
