hasin hain kis qadar manzar mein khud ko bhul jata hun
tumhaare shahr mein aa kar main khud ko bhul jata hun

nahin rahta zara bhi hosh mujh ko aane jaane ka
tumhaare pas mein aa kar main khud ko bhul jata hun

main kya hun kaun hun rahti nahin kuchh bhi khabar mujh ko
tumhaari yaad mein aksar main khud ko bhul jata hun

mera sona bhi kya hai jagna kya intizar-e-shab
pada rahta hai ye bistar mein khud ko bhul jata hun

ye mera jism meri ruh us ko saunp di main ne
koi to hai mere andar main khud ko bhul jata hun

ajab si khud faramoshi hai mujh par raat-din tari
mere ai dost padh mantar main khud ko bhul jata hun

na main diwana farzana na main parwana ai 'arpit'
tajjub hai mujhe kyunkar main khud ko bhul jata hun
