hum par nigah-e-lutf kabhi hai kabhi nahin
tum hi kaho ye kya hai agar dil lagi nahin

go ji raha hai aaj bhi koi tere baghair
lekin ye zindagi to koi zindagi nahin

us ki bala se koi jiye ya koi mere
jis ko kisi ke dard ka ehsas hi nahin

dil mein na aarzu hai koi ab na walwala
ek shama jal rahi hai magar raushni nahin

aakhir hum un ke wadon par iman laen kya
jo hum pe mehrban abhi hai abhi nahin

is guftugu ki tarz mein tarmim kijiye
kab tak main khamoshi se sunun aap ki nahin

'asi' zaban-e- khaumshi mein dastan-e-shauq
hum ne kahi hai barha us ne suni nahin
