kisi dhab rah par ab qalb-e-diwana nahin aata
ki ashk aankhon mein hain aur lab pe afsana nahin aata

nahin sikha mere gham ne khushi mein mahw ho jaana
mere nalon ko naghmon mein sama jaana nahin aata

har ek zarre ko sajda kar ke bhi mahrum-e-manzil hun
hazaron kabe aae ek but-khana nahin aata

mohabbat zindagi ki jaan gham jaan-e-mohabbat hai
samajhta hun magar duniya ko samjhana nahin aata

mohabbat aag hai main aag mein jalta hun aur khush hun
mujhe gham kha raha hai mujh ko gham khana nahin aata

jigar ke dagh kaise dagh hain be-nur-o-be-raunaq
ye shamen kya hain jin par koi parwana nahin aata

junun mein ahl-e-dil ka ye bhi ek andaza hai 'fitrat'
ki thokar khana aata hai sanbhal jaana nahin aata
