ek surat to hai jo us ne mohabbat ki hai
baat jazbe ki hai ya baat zarurat ki hai

wo bhi kaisa hai kasak dil ki samajhta hi nahin
main bhi kaisa hun na shikwa na shikayat ki hai

hausla haar diya jald hi main ne apna
chhod dene mein zara us ne bhi ujlat ki hai

kya sitam hai ki bahaaron ke hasin mausam mein
hum parindon ne tere shahr se hijrat ki hai

kuchh nami si meri aankhon mein umand aati hai
jab kahe koi ki main ne bhi mohabbat ki hai

chahe sara hi zamana hai mukhalif us ka
phir bhi 'ariz' ne faqat us ki himayat ki hai
